Assignment #6: Extreme Crop

Nikolai · Sep-08-2006, 10:21 AM

We got nice Tilts this week. Now let's do something different.

The new assignment is all about cropping.

The main difference between this class and the previous ones is to present not one, but two images per entry: the first should depict they way you saw the subject originally (like a street scene), while the second, cropped, should show the final image.

You might wanna use a zoom lens, or do some post work.

In any case: locate the target, take a shot of it with surroundings, and then take a closeup, or trim it in post. No need to go all macro like Brian does, but I would expect the cropped version being like 10% or so of the wider one..

For basic rules and index please check out this sticky.

Let's get cropped!
