| Justin Watson (Justin) Msg: #2 August 4th 2006 12:09:01 | ok i may have cropped too much :-) Here is the original frame except for a small crop to the right which was a small part of the window :-) |

| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #3 August 4th 2006 12:53:21 | Here's how I would have prepared the file. I cropped it differently in order to place the women lower in the frame. There's something I don't like about having subjects high. If there were some object/texture that made the shot more three dimensional, made the view flow more from the bottom back to the subjects, then leaving them 'high' might work for me. But that's my aesthetic. One size does not fit all. Your crop has a dramatic impact due to the striking red clay background. I also messed around with the lighting. |

| Justin Watson (Justin) Msg: #4 August 5th 2006 00:49:23 | Yes i see what you mean about the subjects high in the frame.. I think my original crop was to get rid of the things i didn't want to see, but didn't then think if it improved the photo or not.... | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Adrian Warren (AdrianW) Msg: #5 August 15th 2006 08:56:13 | Conversely I'd crop it tighter top and bottom, like so: |

| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #6 August 15th 2006 16:47:46 | That makes for a striking image - all the red clay. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Justin Watson (Justin) Msg: #7 August 16th 2006 01:54:09 | yes thats what i was looking for :-) I was mainly excited i didn't get any exposure iblowouts with this photo, thus the slight under exposure. | |||||||||||||||||||||
