I would like to ask to to try a couple things. On the first photo, crop out the empty space on the right (almost all black so you won't lose anything important), and about a quarter of the photo on the left. Give the photo a vertical orientation. The butterfly will really pop out at you now. Then crop some of the empty space on the left off the hummingbird photo.

I hope that you try these ideas to see how they work. If they don't, then nothing lost. Just be sure to do it on copies and not the originals. :-)

Good luck!

You are right about needing to crop both pictures but I would leave the horizontal orientation and crop into the butterfly just enough that you don't crop out too much flower.

As for the hummingbird there is some implied motion by virtue of the subject hanging there in mid air so again, I would crop into the bird equal proportions on top, bottom, and left side leaving a bit of room, not too much, on the left side to give the bird somewhere to go.

Thanks Condor. I don't know for pete's sake - It's a UFO. It could even be one of those ancient Vimannas the Indians speak of in the Mahabharata that I keep hearing about in the series about ancient aliens on the History Channel.

Thanks. Now we are getting somewhere. I am beginning to here about cropping tighter over, and over again. Not just my photos, but others as well. This makes perfect sense. I have already started doing this since reading this post.
