You can see in this picture (made by ModernCV ) that the commas appear automatically between fields
I would like to remove some commas without changing the definition of this macro.

The previous answer covered how to remove the border altogether around the photo in moderncv, using the syntax provided by this package. Here I'm going to show you how to remove the padding, which was initially asked and is a little bit less immediate (using moderncv 1.5.1).
moderncv uses a \framebox{} to get a border around your photo. As shown in here, the only way to modify the padding is through the \fboxsep variable. Knowing that you can use the command \setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt} somewhere before the \photo command in order to remove the padding (be it preambule or near the photo declaration, or even in the package itself, depending on how it makes most sense to you)
MWE:
\documentclass[10pt, a4paper]{moderncv}
%% ModernCV themes
\moderncvstyle{classic}
\moderncvcolor{red}
%% Character encoding
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
%% Personal data
\firstname{John}
\familyname{Doe}
\address{Don Knuth Street, 42}{Tex City}
\setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt}
\photo[64pt][0.8pt]{placeholder.png}
\begin{document}
\makecvtitle
\end{document}
Output:
If you are able to work with Xe- or LuaLaTeX, you may load the fontawesome-package which loads all the symbols used in the new style of moderncv:
% arara: lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontawesome}

The commas are hard-coded within the
\cventrymacro; here's the definition (frommoderncvbodyi.sty):If arguments are not left blank, commas are inserted before displaying another argument. You should either change this definition within your preamble, or fool
\cventryby formatting components manually within other arguments:
