Listen "Camera Position 175 : From One, Many"

Episode Synopsis

There’s an old adage in photography: “inside every 8x10” print, there is a really excellent 5x7” image waiting to be found." That old saw is the foundation for an exercise that I’ve used for myself and in my classes over the years; take an image that you’ve made and search for alternate cropping choices that might strengthen the composition. Regardless of whether you find a “better” photograph, you learn a fair amount about how to see.
