the crop tool
original photographers use the crop toll for many reasons but here a 3 reason why a photographer would use this tool....
1. say something has gone wrong with the photo everything is sharp but the top right corner is blur so you would crop that top right corner out.
2. say you are shooting outside and one of the photos is really good the sharp but a car, bus, someone bird or birds come out of nowhere and is deflecting from you main subject or main subjects.
3. change the aspect of your image or to improve the overall composition of the image.
this is the original photo
this is me using to corp tool for this photo of the first time
as you can see i lifted same space the reason why i did this is because i was originally doing the composition rule of leaving negative space and i still wanted to have same space even if its not leaving negative space any more.
this is the second time i crop this photo
this time i change the composition rule to fill the frame so you can the person and the way the lighting is hitting the person face.
this is the third time i have used the crop tool on this photo
this time i crop out same of the bottom of the photo and crop out same of the top giving a mixed of leaving negative space and Centred Composition and Symmetry.
this is the fourth time i have used the crop tool on this photo
as you can see i zoom right in the person face give you a mixed composition rules such as Centred Composition and Symmetry and Fill the Frame.
