The frame



Stephen Shore
Proton Avenue, Gull Lake, 1974

A passive frame where the structure of the picture begins within the image and works its way out.




Stephen Shore
Main Street, Gull Lake, 1974

An active frame, the structure of the picture begins with the frame and works inward.
Although the buildings continue beyond the edges, the world of the photograph is contained within the frame.
