I see your point but I did not want to loose any perspective as how the flags sit in reality plus I did wind the photo to the top of the screen and to remove the sky would just make it look over cropped and i would have to take some off the sides to bring it back into what i call a printable shape.

i know some do not pay attention to how their entry will print but I have always been of the believe that if you are going to crop it should not be extreme tothe point that on a 8x10,6x4,5x7 A4 it just looks like a strip.

having said that I always use Qimage pro for printing and never crop any of my photo\s physically but just make them fit the full size of paper I am using with no white borders.it is justsomething that i prefer to do.

cheers

I agree with Mary Anne, cropping the top of the image off makes the colorful flags below really pop. Give it a try and see what you think. There are some fabulous colors here! ~Sharon

Great colors, Turidia. To really emphasize them, I think I'd crop off all the sky, filling the frame completely with the flags.
