[QUOTE="aroy, post: 351857, member: 16090"] I am at sea as to what you want. Any way here are the options to the best of my understanding. 1. If the photo is too big (in terms of pixels), then you resize it. For example the images from my D3300 are 6,000 x 4,000 pixels. Now most sites do not allow this size, so I resize it to any of the following dimensions - 1200 x 800 - 1000 x 667 - 800 x 534 - 600 x 400 - 300 x 200 All these sizes retain the original aspect ratio of 3:2. Choose the size that the site allows. 2. You need to move the camera back, only when the main object either overflows the image area or occupies the whole space without any thing else showing. For example if the Church you are shooting fills the whole frame, and you also want the grounds to come, then you move back, or use a wider focal length. 3. Your main object is too small and you want to cut the superfluous information. In this case you do it in two steps - First you use software to crop the area of interest - that is cut only that portion of image that you want to show, and reject the rest. Save this cropped image to another file. - Secondly you resize the cropped image, maintaining the original aspect ratio. As stated a few posts back, most software will maintain the aspect ratio if you tell it to. All you have to do is to input the dimensions of the long side (For this site most of us use 1000 pixels), and the software will calculate the other side. [/QUOTE]
