Q

Types of background midground and foreground

A

Foreground - Where is the subject or the point of focus for the reader. If the subject seems closer to the reader, in the front of the scene depicted, it stands in the ‘foreground’.

Midground - If the subject stands in the middle of the scene that is depicted, thern there it is in the midground. Placing a subject off-centre can also be used to create visual tension.
Background - The objects in the background (not usually the subject) help add contextual information for the reader.
