Continuing on the theme of artistic choices such as my other thread and poll about wing positions lets talk about cropping. In full disclosure I am a crop it tight kind of guy. Even when shooting landscape I seldom use wide lenses but rather medium to long telephoto as I like the compressed look and I prefer the additional details in the image by being more close up.
So here are two examples of a Barred Owl. The first one is uncropped right out of camera. The second one is cropped to my taste. What do you prefer?
Shot with a Sony A1, 600GM with 1.4x tele = 840mm F5.6 1/400, iso 1600.
