aesthetic boundary
Last year I had posted an article "an absurdity called a photograph" wherein I tried discussing aesthetic boundary of an image. Adithya biloor had a querry about the a paragraph " A photograph has no edges. The excluded always follows it as an estranged absence. The process of framing a picture only closes its aesthetics boundary but visual borders are open for interpretation and travel. (It will be interesting to see photograph framed in a manner not declaring its aesthetic boundaries)."
Can you please elaborate "aesthetics boundaries"?"
I'll briefly try and answer Adithya's question;
usually there are two stages of boundary selection before framing or presenting an image. First one happens at the time of clicking when select some part and leave out some. Second one happens on the drawing board/ps when we cut or crop to present only what's visually important. This is an ordinary picture taken at Sach pass. I have tried to include what I would have excluded by way of cropping, in a way an attempt has been made to declare aesthetic boundary less explicitly. This is the first one. many variations to this are possible. In future posts I'll try getting to terms with more posers on the subject.

Nirlep:
to me: 'aesthetic' is subjective 'boundary' is limitation of our minds , alas we don't train ourselves to see beyond these, We don't train our minds to see 'beauty in ugly' !
- well some say it is spiritual to see beyond, i say an attempt to see beyond bondaries is a challenge for our lifetime ! ?

NirlepJi,
Nice visual learning from this image... And i totally agree on your point that the only confinement for our visual boundaries, is the imagination limit...looking forward for more of this :)

Strikes me that a photograph is a slice of space and time. Suspended animation. There are things before and after this slice . Does it relate to want you are saying here or am I completely tangential .
