KZollman Frame

For the subject being framing, I chose this photo out of many I took for this assignment. Where this image takes place is at my future Aunt's wedding. She managed to get some lovely decorations at the wedding and I ended up capturing a couple of some photos for this assignment. I believe this photo shows a great use of Framing by the use of the drapes and the fire place. The drapes would probably be the main object that would give this photo the aspect of framing. It draws the eye to a focal point to a little below the center of the photo, the set of candles. These candles are a representation that later on happens toward the climax of the ceremony. The mother of the bride and groom step up and light the two candles on the sides, and the children from the bride light the center candle. Thus creating unison of two families. In photoshop, I used color balance to give the image a more cool and calming feel to it. I focused more on the green and the blue. I also upped the saturation just a bump, and messed around with curves to give a better lighting to the photo. If I could change one thing about this photo it would be to find a way to get rid of the reflection of the "EXIT" sign in the mirror. I find that little piece a bit distracting.
