Depends on the picture and where it was taken. A crowd of people but no one is really paying attention to the photographer; nature photos in general same thing. Wilderness shots where that photographer has been out for months – probably only the wildlife around him/her. We usually see what we expect to see until someone/thing stands out – or is brought to our attention. Photography is also very poetic in interpretation, individualized perhaps beyond the subject and photographers original intention. Sent from my iPhone
I was thinking of family portraits where the wife or husband or one of the kids is “left out” when in reality they are the ones taking the picture. This aspect of the psychology of photography is often overlooked.
