Steve .. what an excellent article .., with understandable examples ..., you have my attention ...
Very good & informative article with examples on point.
Yes, it was a good article that made me rethink the whole business of cropping!
Thanks for the kind words - it's been a pretty popular article, I thought it might be helpful to post here.
Great article - Thanks, Steve.
I read it and learned from it. Great article, Steve.
Thank you Steve. I just subscribed to your newsletter.
I agree Steve. I too tend to get better final images with a Nikon 1.4 tc than a crop. Thanks for the advice on only cropping 2 sides. I’ll remember that. Good read.

GREAT article! Thanks. Didn’t realize cropping introduced noise. I recently bought Luminar 2018 and know it has a de-noise filter. I’ll use it whenever I need to crop.
If you like the article, as i do, try his books they are excellent.

Thanks again for the kind words everyone - greatly appreciated :)

Thanks Steve! Once again you have increased my knowledge considerably!
I like what you state though I usually crop for getting the rule of thirds more than enlargement of the subject.
