Being Framed

This week the composition challenge is frame within a frame. Framing focuses the attention on the main subject.
I wasn't able to get out and really look for framing compostition photo ops but here's what I was able to get yesterday at the park.
A couple of the sky framed with the trees...

A few creative frames.
My husband's eye framed by his glasses...

My son captured through the slats of the guard rails at the park. I like the 'v' shape framing him. Trouble written all over his face like he was caught red handed, lol. He was gathering acorns so he could start an acorn collection.

I will definitely be more mindful of framing compostition. You can be really creative with framing.

A Little About Me & Photography

I have always enjoyed photography. As a young girl I remember driving my parents crazy always using the camera and begging them to pay extra for one hour processing. Thank goodness for digital. I love the instant gratification being able to see the photo instantly on the back of the camera. One day I made a cute little tutu and had my daughter model it for pictures. They were some of the best I had ever taken. As I looked over those photos I thought, "I want to learn more." Since then I have taken courses and joined photography groups for knowledge and support as I learn more about photography. Thank you to all of my friends and family who have patiently allowed me to practice on them. Thanks to my sister, Amy, who joins me in this learning journey. A big thank you to my sweet husband who supports and encourages me in all I do. There is so much satisfaction when I capture that perfect shot. I want to capture the everyday moments in a beautiful and creative way. I want to document the ordinary. Like the saying goes..."Enjoy the little things in life...for one day you'll look back and realize they were the big things." I hope to record the little things with my photography. Little moments captured forever. It's like time in a bottle.
