Props
You should use props and settings that contribute to the mood and action in a
picture. Props and settings should compliment figures, not compete or
overpower them. Size, position, value, and contrast are the most effective
means to keep scenes from overwhelming figures. If the purpose of the
picture is the setting, give the setting the prominence it deserves.
