[Wight snapper]

Here's a thought - anyone any ideas about cropping pics...can you make a good one from a poor one...should you crop or get it right first time?

The list could go on, but I'd welcome any opinions (I usually crop 'cause I'm not good enuff to get it right first time)

All that cropping can do Vik is improve the composition of the image by removing uninteresting areas that contribute little and draw your eye to the main focal point. It should, perhaps, be a process of self-teaching. After a period cropping your shots heavily you should start to "get it right in camera first time". Using a tripod slows you down from just "snapping away" and helps you to compose your image before pressing the shutter. Hope that helps
