"... how not to shoot a pumpkin patch." :rolleyes

No post processing or crop. ISO100, 22mm, f/8, 1/60 sec

Thought I was being sooooo clever by walking to the far corner. Too much sky.

Blue Snapshots Diary; page 1025. Big mistake in shooting pumpkin patch today. Should have walked into it so entire foreground had pumpkins in it. Watch next time so you don't include so much darn sky.

Hoping for the colors to turn so I can reshoot this before the pumpkins are gone. Will bring my "diary" with me....:D Just keep shootin' and learnin'. Oh well.

    Just crop some of the sky and some of the ground. The higher your megapixels, the more you can get away with cropping. I crop often to give my photos a more balanced look. I try to get the shot right when I take it, but I've seen people crop too tightly when they shoot their photo, and then they're sorry afterwords.
    I just got done reading someone else's story about how he cropped too tightly, and now has to try to deal with it:
