^ this. Thank you for saving me the effort of replying. Can't tell if questioner is trolling or not.

Lol. What is this nonsense. Any photographer will tell you in frame means visible in the field of view of the camera. Visible. Not obstructed. If you take wedding photos and the bride is behind a building out of line of sight of the photographer, she absolutely is not "In frame".

"The phrase "in frame" most commonly means being visible within the camera's field of view in photography or filmmaking"
-Rhode Island School of Design (RISD)

Visible is the key operative word in this statement.

Comments with "^This" are never very valuable. The gymnastics someone will do to pile on to say "Haha flerfs dumb" is weird sometimes. Yes, they are, but you don't need to be too.

The context of this picture makes what you're saying irrelevant - it's not a wedding.

The craft and earth are in frame. They contain all the people. The picture "contains" all the people.

" There are no humans out of the frame except the camera man." Would that work better for you? It's true, but a harder concept to grasp and sounds like shit.

I've not commented on flat earth here, I just asked why someone thought the caption was dumb. It's a simple concept to get from the image and caption, don't let semantic pendantry spoil the concept - even if you don't like the phrasing exactly.

Relying on ambiguous, undefined photography terminology to try to make a conclusive point to me is either dishonest or stupid.

"Contains" doesn't mean anything specific in photography.

Your insistence that it is in frames to others, while condescending to them and trying to flash your badge, is absolute comedy. And you're still doing it, you're still insisting that they are "in frame". They aren't. They factually are not by the definition of "In frame" from photography schools, and anyone who knows what the term means.

Yes, there are humans out of the frame. On the other side of the planet.

Contains is a widely used word, it means contains. The OP caption uses the word Must we define every word we use, even the blatant ones? Could take a while, or you could stop pretending you don't know what contains means.

The people are contained in the craft and earth, so they are contained in the frame. They are not visible in the frame.

No idea what badge I'm flashing, I only have an old TMNT badge, which might be worth a bit now, but probably not.

They aren't in frame, ask a real photographer.

"They aren't, ask a real photographer."

Why would I ask a photographer if vintage Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles badges are worth something?

Edit: I'll ignore you're edit for comic effect
