What does the viewer see?

The best way to communicate through pictures is to make the important elements the most visible. This starts with picking your field of view. Think about what the viewer needs to see to get your point across. Is it the ocean and the waves they need to see to establish where the picture is being taking , or is it the tear rolling down a person’s cheek to convey the emotion of the subject? Then pick a field of view that includes only that which is necessary to get your point across
