How much to crop

If you would like to post, you'll need to register. Note that if you have a BCG store account, you'll need a new, separate account here (we keep the two sites separate for security purposes).

I like the looser crop (wider). I like to see more of the environment and in this case I also like the composition more on the wider shot.
In my opinion a lot of photographers are more concern with cropping tight on the subject, ignoring the composition and the "story".
My philosophy is changing somewhat. Originally seeing and recording the bird was the "quest"; now having a good photo is the "quest". I still have a hard time in the field not using my extenders. I still want to "zoom" in on that bird though I sometimes regret that later.
