Borders..

[posiview]

I like borders, but I'm not sure why. They seem to contain the photograph.

Is there any theory on this?

And yes, it's late and I may be rambling, but I'm interested in your thoughts.

Cheers.

I used to go in there a couple of times a week until I got a Kindle.

i know what you mean andy, i started adding simple black borders to my images a while black. it sort of draws you into the photo i think.

I am of the opinion that borders like vignetting or HDR can be overused. It all depends on the image. Some images just lend themselves to a particular technique which makes them pop. Other images just need to stand on their own.
