Answer:

Mishler calls this interaction FABRIC (Foreground and Background Relative Interactive Contrast)

Step-by-step explanation:

It means that the lightest part of the background contrasts with the darkest part of the foreground, and the lightest part of the foreground contrasts with the darkest part of the background, creating a light-dark-light-dark pattern. It affects the way the foreground of the photograph interacts with the background, making the subject really stand out. He talks about using it in wildlife photography, concentrating the lightest parts of the foreground with the darkest part of the background.
