[QUOTE="brak1, post: 571208, member: 5390"] This is just my opinion, but I've never been a big fan of non-physical framing of images. I like a good frame around a picture or a photograph if it's hanging on the wall - done right it can actually enhance or set off the work. In a digital setting I feel like it's extraneous, almost never as good as the work itself and rarely adding to it in any way. Plus I feel like there are parts of the image obscured by the frame. That being said, this frame-within-a-frame effect isn't too bad. It creates a certain sense of motion to the images - at least in my mind's eye. I dunno. Maybe I just haven't seen it done enough. We all get accustomed to whatever the norm is. Framing a digital image hasn't been done in the regular course of things, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be. Guess I'll have to wait and see some more examples. [/QUOTE]
