I tend to buy frames from pound shops and supermarkets. I recently cleared our local Tesco out of their entire (reduced) stock of "Value Picture Frames" which are plain light wood frames with no ornamentation.
I do tend to wince at their more expensive offerings. Generally they appear to be aimed at magpies judging by the ghastly fake silver bits!

you can find some great expensive frames at charity shops at cut prices(usually with some crap picture in them) that you can re-use

Afterwards I let her indulge herself by browsing the local Charity Shops, no! I'm not being funny she really enjoys it She didn't find anything herself although I spent a fair few quid on books, I also grabbed a K mount Miranda 70-210 for less than a tenner by the time I'd got it onto the K5 the light had more or less gone, but heres a couple, as I recal the first shot at f8 the second at f16. Those of you who frequent the Goth Festival will no doubt recognise the first but the second will be a bit more difficult as you will be viewing a street that isn't a sea of people
Please dont bother with comments on the images artistic merit because there isn't any
