Sometimes intentionally but most times unintentionally, I use arches and openings on walls to frame my subject. For me, the purpose of framing is to guide the viewer’s eyes to what I want to emphasise and ultimately create a better composition because of it.
Some of these photos I have used before but bear with me if I am using it again for this topic.
