The image you are photographing is already framed inside the confi nes of the viewfi nder, but placing your subject within another frame can be a good way to draw the viewer’s eyes toward the part of the image you would like to emphasize (Figure 8.22). You can also give the image a feeling of depth and help tell a story by being creative with the depth of fi eld (Figure 8.23).
