Digital Imaging: LA 4 - Cropping an Image

This was chosen as the vertical shift crop, because it better frames the Panda, eliminates the distractions of the people in the corner, and creates further emphasis on the Panda's vertical climb.

This was chosen as the movement crop, however subtle, because it pulls the building out of the center of focus and creates a better balance between the two main elements.

This was chosen as a emphasis crop, to create a better pattern of composition for the Terracotta Warriors. With this composition, the lines of soldiers fall around the thirds line.

This was chosen as a distraction crop, because the trees and sky on each side was a bit of a waste of space. Cropping people out was sort of impossible if I wanted to keep the statue in front.
