Our eyes are in constant motion; zooming in, zooming out, panning about. In static images our glance moves over the subject pausing with interest and passing with indifference. Great paintings often have mini scenes within the whole that our brain reflects upon.

Here are examples of framed views inside larger compositions. In web applications these cropped views, or mini moments can be used as a rollover application that expands to a broader view or in a flash based application that creates a dissolve effectively giving movement to the composition.

Here are the same image pairs before being cropped.

Joyce Hewins of SVI Interior Design created the San Francisco home.

Photos on websites are viewed quickly and viewed small. Here are some examples of recropping.
