[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 382572, member: 3903"] I agree 100% with your evaluation of these pictures. Concerning the reason why there is more space above the subjects and the feet were cut-off is probably because the photographer kept the main subject in the center of his frame. It seems I often see this in a lot of pictures. Photographer uses single point focus in the middle and keeps the subject there. The way to counter that is to lock focus and reframe. It is more frequent to see this with DSLRs and SLRs because of the way we see through the lens and can concentrate only on our subjects, forgetting about composition. When you learn with 4x5 or 2-1/4 cameras with the ground glass to compose, you just don't see the same way. Just my humble opinion that I hope can help some of you to see more than the subject that you want to photograph. [/QUOTE]
