Subject: [Leica] Cropping

I'm one of those who (probably out of laziness in my case) don't crop
much. Funny ... when it counts (when I'm delivering a shot to someone
paying) I do. But hardly ever (well never) in my PaWs.

BD sent me a nice crop of the water picture. I'm going to have to take
cropping seriously.

BD's crop:

The original:

The crop is better. I'm posting this as an example of constructive
criticism this group is capable of. Sometimes that gets questioned.
Despite all our off topic rants, there are some real pros here.

The original was taken with a 35mm lens. If I had used the 50, it would
have almost equalled the crop. My non-resolution ambition to get to know
the 50 better this year in my PAWs seems like a good idea.

Best,

Daniel
