This is a wonderful photo of Henry. I try to frame my shots the best I can with my DSLR, but have to remember to leave a crop space with my point and shoot. That said, I still play around with different crops on certain photos. Sometimes a square crop is so much more effective that the traditional 4X6. I also crop to better place my focal image using the rule of thirds. I did that recently for a photo of a sailboat on Cayuga Lake and it really made a huge difference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671093558941693832.post-57804060241298839732010-09-11T08:51:16.248-07:002010-09-11T08:51:16.248-07:00I think that's an excellent lesson - sometimes...I think that's an excellent lesson - sometimes it really is all in the crop. I always have a look at Picasa's suggested crops for my photos to see what that throws up.<br /><br />How wonderful to have your work recognised and introduced to a wider audience :)Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01764280029794453933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671093558941693832.post-82740218586638016822010-09-11T08:04:55.968-07:002010-09-11T08:04:55.968-07:00Perfect cropping, that's a super photo :-) No ...Perfect cropping, that's a super photo :-) No tips to offer I'm afraid!

He is totally absorbed in this one, it really speaks volumes. I love the way the background is blurred enough to not distract from the focal point but clear enough to see what it says.

I find this is another area where digital scrapping helps - when you use a template the cropping is set so I find that leaving plenty of room in the shot to begin with is important.<br />I'm going to go and check the links for today now :-)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04009119301336136337noreply@blogger.com
