Arches are one of my favorite framing devices, and Europe is full of them. Here are two photos my husband took, one at Roman ruins in Italy and one in a Croatian Old Town. It’s nice to show off his talent every now and then!
Tindari, Sicily
Dubrovnik, Croatia
But in a more natural setting, who doesn’t like using foliage for framing? I immediately thought of this photo I took on a hike along the coast on the Beara Peninsula in Co. Cork, Ireland. I took pictures of this lighthouse from several angles with different framing devices; you can see more in my post for Weekly Photo Challenge: Variations on a Theme.
You can find more framed shots at the original Lens-Artist challenge.
Beautiful arch photos captures by your husband. I, too, love to photo arches in Europe. The lighthouse is nicely framed by the tree. It looks like you have a wonderful time hiking at the Beara Peninsula. Thank you for sharing you framing the shot, Mei-Mei. 🙂

Lovely frames – both natural and arches! Great that you promote your husband ♥ too. Your examples are very clear and accurate – and my favorite is…the hiking shot. The light in enhances the sea and the light house in a soft and compelling way.

Thank you! He took all his photos in Europe just with his phone, and they were often better than mine with a cheap camera! Of course now I just use my phone, too. It’s amazing how much better the phone cameras have gotten over the years!

They really have. Sometimes I prefer the photos taken with my phone over the DSLR shots. But having your camera with you all the time is smart.
