Thankyou fabric and Vanessa for your comments.
fabric, I didn't use any framing at all up until perhaps 2 years ago when we built a gallery to display and sell my work. I decided at that time to frame all of the images on display in exactly the same double layered white matt with simple narrow black frame. It turned out to be somewhat impressive actually in its simplicity.
From that point forward I have used that simple type of approach to present my images on the net as well.
It may not be to all tastes, but, I think one must look at it as being subjective, no different to that which is contained within.
In all honesty, I could take it or leave it....
