Save Me! The Value of Cropping

What do you do if half your photo looks great and the other half is less than ideal? Can you save it? Cropping is a great way to make the most of a photo that may otherwise be discarded. Below I will show you an example of how cropping is used to enhance a photo. Keep this in mind for the future when editing your own photos. Some photos that you may have previously discarded can be saved with the right crop!

The original photo:

I love the little girl's expression in this photo! I am not such a big fan of the baby's face. Now I will crop into the area that I like. 

Finally, I will add some effect to give this photo a very simple, classic feel.

Voila!
