    A Deeper Frame | Creating Deeper Photographs & More Engaging Experiences

    © 2011 Craft and Vision | A Deeper Frame by David duChemin A DEEPER FRAME is an introduction to the discussion about re-introducing the illusion, or perception, of depth that is removed when the camera flattens the three-dimensional world into two.
