Fractional

A Fractional photograph is one that shows only a part of an otherwise recognizable object and has not been manipulated with color or additions/subtractions. It is not easy to decide, like so many things in life, whether or not a photograph is a part of a larger object or the whole object. A door or window can be either. The choices I have made here are based on where I saw the beauty – was the whole object beautiful and I only took a part of it to emphasis that beauty or was all the beauty in the object contained in the photograph? The former makes the fractional photograph.
