WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: Framing
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Framing is important in photography because it acts as a visual tool to direct the viewer's attention to the main subject of an image, creating a sense of depth and context within the scene, essentially making the photograph more engaging and visually interesting by isolating the subject and guiding the viewer's eye through the composition.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will follow along with instruction and use what we have learned to create amazing photos using Framing!
For Part 1 of assignment...
