Cropping for the story: Last day before school starts

by imagist on September 1, 2010

Generally I feel fairly confident about if, when and how to crop my photographs. School begins today for many students in the greater Milwaukee area, including my own city of Mequon. I took Sophia to our favorite park for our last “Grandpa day” before she begins her full days in school; and was surprised at how many kids, parents and grandparents did the same. This photograph struck me as particularly on for this topic. But for the first time in a long time I truly can’t decide which crop would work best to accompany such a story.
