I thought the lamps would provide a good frame for the boat for displaying that rule in my assignment, however nothing about this image really felt lworth handing up.
I was feeling lazy and couldn't remember how to edit the background in any kind of realistic way (and of course we covered that the week AFTER submission!) So this one went into the 'bit flat, bit boring, bit same same' pile.
It's up here though because the timing was spot on. I did use continuous shutter release, but my camera is not new, and she is not fast. The kayak (??) is perfectly centred between the lamps, which I was happy with. There's too much blah to make this a great photo, but if I were one of the men rowing, it'd be a great action shot put with my trophies or medals or something like that.
I would offer a copy to the rowers, if I knew who they were! Now it's not under pressure for an assignment I may go back and play with the cleaning and editing of the image, too.
They are in Adelaide Crows colours. Wrong sport, though!
The frame in Kensington Signal Box. The levers painted white are spare or not in use levers.
This Frame along with the Newmarket Panel and the Signal Boxes at Essendon, Epsom Road, Showgrounds and Flemington Racecourse were replaced by a computer based panel inside Kensington Signal Box in 2014.

This photo captures the element of framing because of the surrounding circle around the subject that makes the focal point stand out. To take this photo, I positioned my camera in between a circle-shaped statue and made sure that the subject was evenly lined up on both sides. To edit this photo, I intensified the greens in the grass and made the gate darker. I also added a curve to lighten the photo and increased the shadows. I think I did a good job at making the focal point stand out and if I could change anything, I would pick a more colorful subject.
For the look book for his fall and winter 2006-2007 collection, Bernhard Willhelm posed "ghetto boys" in giant frames. The frames evolve from a metal, "ghetto" gate into a gilded baroque frame, changing the "ghetto boys" into baroque paintings and vice versa, For this exhibition, the collection is presented in a classical museum gallery. The mannequins are arranged in such way that they can only be properly seen from a single vantage.

Shot with the "Natural Framing" assignment on DPS in mind.
8x10 picture frame made from reclaimed hemlock. The wood was from a 2x6 framing stud or joist It was from one of 11 houses deconstructed in 2012 for SUNY ESF to make way for more modern, efficient and safer student housing. ESF was committed to reusing as much material as possible.
Hemlock is ubiquitous in Western New York. At one time the western half of the state was covered in dense forests of colossally large hemlocks. By the early 1800s they were cleared. Hemlock is not generally not considered a nice wood, except for framing. It is a rough, grainy, splintery wood, But it doesn't shrink appreciably as it dries, thus it was useful for house framing. Prior to that its most common use was for its bark. Hemlocks have a very high tannin content (which is why they turn so brown with time) and their bark was useful for leather tanning. More hemlocks were stripped of their bark and left for dead than were felled for timber.
Since so many structures are made of hemlock in WNY, one could say that the old-growth forests are still around in the framing of buildings. As long as this material is still in use we are still utilizing the environmental impact that was made 100 or more years ago - and at high environmental cost. Once a building is demolished - the most common fate for this wood is the landfill. Each house contains approximately 50 tons of wood, which decomposes to methane in the anaerobic environment of the landfill. Methane is 20 times more potent than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas. The tree is no longer actively accumulating carbon and removing it from the atmosphere, but as useful lumber it is at least keeping in sequester. Once it goes into the landfill it begins to decompose into methane and brings to fruition the full environmental impact that began with clearing the old-growth hemlock forests long ago.
The frame is a solid block of wood ripped from the joist and rabbeted in the back. It is about 2 inches thick. It was also stained with a black aniline dye. The dye was dissolved into alcohol and it produces an interesting staining pattern - apparently the reverse of what oil based stains would. The black dye produces an interesting color that is not brown as conventional stains produce.
The glass comes from old, discarded window sashes and the cardboard from boxes. Each piece is varnished with water-based, dull-flat, polyurethane.
sooooooooc
I used to think that sooc was slang for soo cool
but now I see what it is
this could use something more, but the idea is nice. I wish I could eliminate that wire thing
Went to visit my Dad today and spent a lovely few hours on his deck surrounded by greenery and renewed my spirit a bit. We talked about a lot of things and as usual, I enjoyed spending time with him.
Check out this frame! It is for a commission for a co-worker! He used scraps (he has tons!) and put a lip around it. The glass on the inside is even scraps he's had laying around. He wouldn't let me pay him for it either. He said he enjoyed making it and anytime I needed a frame of any size, he'd be happy to make one for me. How cool is he?!
As I was getting ready to leave, I mentioned something to him about seeing a house on my way to work each morning with stained glass things around and an old window with the frame still on it sitting against a tree with stained glass in it. He moved some boards around and said: "like these?". OMG!!! He has 6-10 old window frames sitting in his driveway not knowing what he was going to do with them. Once I could breathe again, I told him what great mosaics they could make. He asked me if I wanted one or two. Um ... chyeah! He also pulled out a piece of what I hope is tempered glass from an old fridge. My Dad saves things from the landfill and makes his daughter happy! Happy planet, happy daughter, good Karma for us all!!
8x10 handmade frame
The Barony A Frame Trust was set up in 1997 as a community led charitable Trust specifically to save and restore the iconic A Frame at the former Barony Colliery in Auchinleck, East Ayrshire.
Following the decision by Scottish Coal to close the pit, all of the mine buildings were demolished leaving the A Frame structure isolated in a derelict landscape. However, no one had banked on the depth of feeling for the former Barony Colliery and its unique A Frame. The community rallied around the mission to save the A Frame from demolition. and create a meaningful and sustainable monument to mining and mining communities.
The structure was in need of a major face-lift so, with assistance from East Ayrshire Council, the Trust set about raising £1.3m to carry out the work. Fundraising took far longer than was initially anticipated but by 2007 the remedial work to the A Frame was complete along with major landscaping and improvement works to the surrounding site. The end result is a sustainable, meaningful monument to the mining industry and the communities who worked in it.
The man himself did the final fitting and setup. That was really nice.

birthday gift last year, got inspired by seeing fabric frames at Anthropologie and decided that I could make some for gifts, but then I had to create a collage in photoshop to go in the frame. I never take the easy way out.
Exercise bars at Leighton beach frame the sunset. Fake Lomo effect applied and overlaid as a 'multiplied' layer over the original photograph.

I asked geo3pea if I could print & frame one of his photos for my house & he kindly agreed. I think it looks beautiful. I'm also hanging one of doglinton's photos but haven't found a frame for it yet. Thanks to my flickr friends I'll have some really nice art in the house.
