The photo I used was a panoramic image of a colonial fort in the foreground and a bay lined with palm frees in the background right before sunset.
A.
Nostalgic – The lack of definition and blurred effect gives the
impression of a
memory
B.
Editorial – Formal and dark border brings out the darkness of the
structure in the
foreground, also formality of straight black edges would be
part of a
structured piece like an article as opposed to a poster
C.
Casual – Light colored frame to give definition but not strict as
there are palm trees
in the background and the dark structure in foreground is
prominent;
attempt to give some balance
D.
Spotlight – The smaller, circular frame focuses the viewer on
the contrast between
the light of the left margin of the
picture and the dark color of the structure in the foreground
E.
Scrapbook – the double and alternate color border gives impression
of a
photographic frame. The dark outer border tones down the yellow and white
color schemes, but the white border doesn’t make the image too
dark
F.
Coastal Chic – Light colored frame to reflect lightness of the
mood, but still some
structure; the lighter color choice reflects the light in
the image
