I tried to size this to fit in the photo gallery. Not sure I did it right.I am trying to understand the editing process. CaptainC has given me some ideas. I'd like to know what you would do with this photo if it were yours. I honestly do like the photo but wonder what others would do to edit it?
Was taken with a Nikon D7000 in Aperture priority at f2.8 with a lens focal length of 122, ISO 250 and shutter of 1/320

It might look better if you crop out a lot of the grass foreground and crop off some on the right side too. If you crop off some of the grass you will probably need to crop some from the top too.

Great shot. Love the depth of field and the color.

Frame it!

Obviously, if you want to, you could try various "artistic" filters such as watercolor, oils, pastels,etc. I like it as is, however.

I would level it, they are tilted to the left. You didn't leave much room for cropping, you might run into some issues when it comes to print sizes.

he's a stinker. I also take photos at basketball games. His uncle is the head varsity boys coach so he's always there. I love taking candid shots of him in the crowd. He's a stitch

explain that to me. Leaving space for print sizes. I think that has caused me issues before but don't understand it

and I have no idea why the colour shifted, all I did was crop and save. Stupid uploader tool on UHH.
