A frame within a frame is one of the most interesting composition techniques in photography. By enclosing your subject within a physical frame, you can direct the viewers’ interest to your subject. The following image by photographer Nathan Ackley is an amazing example of beautiful composition:
“Girl Reading a Book” by Nathan Ackley (Via Reddit. Click image to see full size.)
Ackley took this image at a library in Shanghai, which he happened to stumble by chance.
