Nature does some pretty great framing on its own. Just think how creatively we can see the world through wind-carved arches in Utah or a grove of trees in Cades Cove, Tennessee, or a pile of rocks on the Dingle Peninsula in Ireland. But man comes up with unique frames of his own sometimes.

Make your own art with this ironwork frame on Great Island Common at New Castle Beach, NH.
Like this one on Great Island Common in New Castle Beach, New Hampshire. It’s meant for picture-taking.

Whaleback Lighthouse — suitable for framing!
And why not? A rocky beach, the Piscataqua River, and Whaleback Lighthouse — I’d frame this scene, too!

Fun idea!
Oh, the Places We See
It is fun, and we loved smiling as we drove closer to it. It’s nothing fancy. Just a great idea!

Nice work. I always enjoy framing my photos. They did it for you here! Clever idea. —Curt

It is a clever idea — and I can think of so many places this would work! Nice of you to comment — always!

“frame” literally….perfect for WPC-Frame!

Thanks so much for taking a look! When we saw this iron sculpture, we loved it immediately! What a great idea for cities to adopt!

I love New Castle! I’d love to be there when there is an artist painting a picture of the framed scene.
Oh, the Places We See
I would also! This idea of having an iron frame is fun for those of us who love to take pictures. And I tried standing at different places to change up the angles a bit.

Me too. I was there during winter. I need to back during the fall. I came away with so many pictures

Oh, what fun!
Oh, the Places We See
Thanks for your comment — and we couldn’t agree more. We just happened upon this with no prior knowledge it was even there. How fun is that!
Sue
Perfect…I’m all for serendipity!

I’ve taken this same photo several times myself. It may be the smallest town in NH, but it is certainly one of the most beautiful. 🙂 When were you at New Castle? It is only about 20 minutes from home. 🙂

We decided to see Portland on our way up to Vermont. Stayed at Martin Hill Inn — so quaint and grounds would be lovely in spring, or so we think. We were there right after the Boston Marathon, so not much was in bloom. But we loved this park that the manager of a card shop in Portsmouth told us about. You live in an absolutely beautiful area!!!

Picture perfect.
Oh, the Places We See
Thanks so much for your comment. We think it’s picture perfect, too! And a whole lotta fun!

from the reader I could not imagine how you did this – and then came to see it was an iron frame – very cool- 😉 and the water is so beautiful
Oh, the Places We See
We didn’t know what this was when we first saw it, but when we drove closer and then walked over to it, we fell in love with it. So much fun to take pictures through a frame!!!
