whether horizontal or vertical, there is always a frame in our mind when we keep camera viewfinder to the eye to compose or simply click a picture. here many of us forget the position of the subject, where it is placed in the frame in viewfinder. there are two types of framing, one leaving sufficient space at all the four sides keeping the subject in centre so it look pleasant to the eye, not leaving unnecessary space blank on all four sides until and unless required by the subject to balance the picture. secondly, comes tight cropping means leaving little space or no space at all at all four sides/corners in order to keep full attention on the photograph. there es no possibility of diversion of the eye from the main subject, as in the above photograph of the door. this can be achieved by two ways, one while taking the photograph and later cropping tight as required by your judgement and the subject content. other is to crop the photo in the viewfinder itself before clicking. in my opinion we generally adopt the first method, cropping the picture later on the enlarger or photoshop, as the case may be, but first clicking the whole frame, compositionally satisfted.
