Did you crop this or is it the full picture?

[–] xhci@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ll have to check! This is one of my older pics, but I should still have the raw file floating around. I’ll reply if I can find it.

I do know it’s only marginally cropped if at all.

IMO the picture would be better with a little more space on the left. The boat is too close to the edge and the sliver of the dock is a bit distracting. It would feel more balanced with a slightly different crop, if at all possible. Good picture otherwise.

It turns out I have a couple more - this is the one where the boat is most towards the center (still not by a lot). I think I used it as a desktop wallpaper, so enjoyed the extra space on the right for icons.

(ps - the colors are all wonky, because I did a raw export from apple photos)

That’s good feedback! I don’t remember a lot to work with from the raw, but I’ll see what I can dig up! I should have time tomorrow to get to the bottom of this and a question on another photo.
