In this digital age, I’ve become more spontaneous with my photography. Whether I’m traveling or simply walking around, I capture whatever catches my eye in the moment. I don’t always think about the rules of photography—sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
For this week’s challenge from Patti, the theme is framing the shot. Here are some of my attempts. A few were intentional, but others turned out to be unexpected little surprises—and those are often my favorites. All taken from a recent trip to Vietnam… in Sapa and Da Nang.
As Patti mentioned, photos also explore different layers of composition, with elements in the foreground, middle ground, and background coming together to frame each scene.
Fantastic shots. Love the dragon and background. The restaurant and countryside in Vietnam are beautiful too.
Thanks Rebecca, I really love Vietnam.
My dad has visited twice. Loved it both times.
Some fine examples here – though as a nicely bucolic scene I’m especially drawn to the last one.
Very peaceful scenery indeed that last one.
Wow beautiful shots! Really like the one with the sunrays coming through the clouds!
Thanks Pam, those sunrays were fleeting…had to rush to take it.
These are wonderful! They worked without a doubt. 😊
Thanks Pepper, glad it did work out well.
These all work very well Teresa 🙂 I especially like the New Year shot from Vietnam, the Phillips Island one and Dandenong Ranges. And I’m glad to see I’m not the only person who went beyond the three photo limit!
Haha I wanted to… but can’t resist. Thanks so much and great knowing your favourites.
You have an artist’s eye for framing, Teresa, and all of these are superb xx
Oh my thanks for your wonderful comment. You’re so kind.
oh my goodness…..such a beautiful array of images.
Thanks so much Cath. Much appreciated.
Hi Teresa. I agree with Jo. You have a marvelous artistic eye. Your images are stunning!
Thanks so much Patti, you and Jo are making me smile.
A gorgeous gallery, Teresa! You have got the eye!
Thanks A-C, much appreciated!
