4.8. Seeing the Frame
Figure 4.22. Top; The tips of the petals of this Gazania blossom appear to tickle the frame. I placed the flower so that it was almost centered, but not quite-and so some of the tips of the petals extend beyond the frame-to add interest to the composition. It keeps the viewer slightly off balance.: 200mm macro, 8 seconds at f/36 and ISO100, tripod mounted
Figure 4.23. Bottom: The focus of this composition is the water drop, which rests on a branch that appears to "hang" from a horizontal and a vertical edge of the photo frame itself.: 200mm macro, 3/5 of a second at f/36 and ISO 100, tripod mounted
