"Photography is about finding out what can happen in the frame. When you put four edges around some facts, you change those facts." -- Gary Winogrand.
What does this quote mean? Consider the quote in context of our work with framing and composition.
This quote means that when you restrict the world to a single photographic frame, the world is subjective. The photographer has the option to frame the photo however he pleases, using whatever angles and subject manipulation (not post-production in this sense) they please. What the audience sees is what the photographer created, not necessarily the "facts" or what they would see if they were looking at the same object.
