Framing the landscape by pcoulson

Framing the landscape

Noticed this rusting metal frame fixed into the ground at a viewing point overlooking Holmfirth in the high peak area, it would have been rude to pass up the opportunity to include it in the shot.
What a great idea. Makes a good shot.

@quietpurplehaze Thank you for your great comment Hazel not much information about when and why it was put there, on the frame it does state " In partnership with the university of Huddersfield" :)

Looks good ... we have frames simalar to these at all the Regional Parks around Auckland ... though ours do look bigger... approx 2.5 x 2 metres..

Never seen one of these but would really like to ; what a fab idea !

What a great idea and a lovely capture Peter. Wonder what it would have looked like if you had cut the area outside of the frame out. Just like a framed picture I guess.

Fabulous idea. A couple of years ago at the Sculptures by the Sea in Sydney one of the sculptures was a huge frame similar to this and the view was of Bondi

Excellent Peter.. love it.. such a great overview of a lovely part of West Yorkshire, with the iconic Emley Mast on the horizon.. Btw, i like the space around the frame - it puts it in context..

@terryliv Thank you for your comments Terry they are appreciated, left space around the frame to place it in context, if had I cropped to the frame it would possibly look like I added it in post production:)

@jorlam Thank you for your wonderful comments Jorlam, I tried to get the mast and composition on the third's viewing as a framed picture, with the position of the frame I couldn't just manage it, leaving space around the frame as you noticed just to place it in context:)

Seizing the moment - how could you not grab that shot? I like that you framed it as you did. A frame within a frame within a frame.......where does it end?

@stray_shooter Thank you Ron I'm sure you would have done the same just to keep it in context, as you say a frame within a frame:)
