Selling Scarves Vertical Crop

As suggested by Suzanne @ankers70 and endored by @shutterbug49 I tried the vertical crop and they are right -- it totally focuses the attention! Thanks!

I like this very much.

[Shutterbug]

That was a good tip. I like this version even better.

[Jane Pittenger]

Yes. This is a great improvement

@seattlite @shutterbug49 @jgpittenger -- thanks for the feedback. My usual crop is 4 x 6 but this is a 4 x 5 in order not to cut people in half. But I wonder if what I have created now is a half/half image. Oh, right. It's half and half May!

[Annie D]

definitely a better crop to focus on him - and I think a good half-half too

@seattlite @shutterbug49 @jgpittenger @annied I decided to try a 4 x 6 crop: https://365project.org/jyokota/challenges-and/2024-04-15

I like this one out of the two crops. Good one!

[Jane Pittenger]

I like this the best of the three. The environment adds to the story

[Rick]

Think I also like this one the best. Great shot.

[Kitty Hawke]

I like this pic the best.

[Merrelyn]

This is my preferred crop, having more diners in the image adds to the story.

[Pat Knowles]

I think I like this one best as it’s not just the scarf seller but the diners too who are so interesting.

[Rob Z]

I also like this one - I think the diners add a contrasting feel to the scarf seller - he's a bit exotic whilst they are reasonable mundane. :)
