This tutorial is to help you learn how to crop badly composed
photos and make them more pleasing to the eyes and to the rules of
composition. Many people tend to always put their subject
right in the middle of the frame which works, but it may look better
somewhere else.
1. To crop your
photo simply chose the Crop Tool. 2.
Enter in the dimensions that you want at the top of the screen, for
this photo I used 4 by 3. 3.
Then click and drag the crop tool over the area of the photo that
you want to keep. When you crop a photo you should think
about the rule of thirds. The rule of thirds is pretty much
represented in the picture to the left. The rule of thirds
directs that the main subjects should be placed in the intersection
points of the horizontal and vertical lines. You shouldn't always
follow the rule of thirds exactly, but you should definitely
consider it when cropping your photos. |
