Meet my granddaughter Sophie. I tend to use her quite a lot to practice on as she has become used to the camera and is a handy subject for me. Scale & Setting IMG 1 This close cropped image gives nothing away with regard to background information. The viewers gaze is drawn straight to the eyes which are looking directly into the lens, this makes a very intimate image. Scale & Setting IMG 2 This image brings a little of the background into the frame but not enough to attract attention away from the face. The eyes are still very much the main focus. Scale & Setting IMG 3 Still not enough of the background shown to be of interest here but bringing a little more of the body into the frame displays some body language and tells a little about the subject's character. In this case the pose is defiant and defensive with the arms folded stubbornly, the petulant frowning expression adds to this. Scale & Setting IMG 4 The background can be clearly seen here and the image tells more of a story about the subject. Although the viewers eye takes in the whole scene the main focus is still on the subject.
