Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #60– Framing the Images
This week, Amy directs us to explore different ways of framing images. She reminds us that, “Many photographers agree on one thing about framing – that it can help direct the viewers‘ eyes to where you want them to look.”
My granddaughter in the Wedding Tea Ceremony Garden in Hong Kong
“Your frame of reference is what you see.” – Jacque Fresco
My painting in a frame
“Thoughts frame your portrait, action paints it.” – Charles F. Glassman
Looking out to the Great Wall, China from the Great Wall window
“The frame through which I viewed the world changed too, over time. Greater than scene, I came to see, is situation. Greater than situation is implication. Greater than all of these is a single, entire human being, who will never be confined in any frame.” – Eudora Welty
Sculpture art in Barcelona, Spain
“The human frame being what it is, heart, body and brain all mixed together, and not contained in separate compartments as they will be no doubt in another million years.” – Virginia Woolf
Wedding Tea Ceremony Garden in Hong Kong
Celebrating the wedding of my nephew and his wife
“Frame your mind to mirth and merriment which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life.” – William Shakespeare

Such lovely photographs, Miriam. I didn’t realise Mercy is so tiny until I saw her standing next to you.

Really great examples of framing and how it can shift my perspective. Thank you! And, I love the photo of you with your nephew and family (and your granddaughter in the tea ceremony is so good.)
Sending you much love––have a wonderful Labor Day weekend, Miriam.

ps – Shakespeare is great. In my coaching work, I sometimes use this one, “There is no such thing as right and wrong, only our thinking that makes it so.”

Yes, I agree with Shakespeare. Other than the universal laws, the judgement of right and wrong is personal. The personal thinking determines it.
A wonderful weekend to you and love, Debbie.

This is all wonderful, Miriam. Love that first one especially, and the quotes to go with them are perfect. The Eudora Welty really touched my heart. I can go back and love it all again, and again.
