Just my thoughts Koh, hope u ok with this ! ..... Like in human portrait, we learn not to chop off-leg at odd places. Not that it cannot be done but in general it's not easy to get one that work in photo sense. Cropping at odd places , make the subject look weird and the overall picture look out-of-balance as well. eg. #1, #2 - Borderline case. May work better by tighter cropping without the leg for #1. #9, #15 Maybe it's just me only. Others please comment. |

Yes comment at will pls. So either show all legs or show legs at all? I was debating on this when doing the cropping actually. Your view welcomed! |

It's not a hard rule, just guidelines. I'm still learning too, but IMO the main point is after chop-off, does the subject look weird and is photo balance ? This is where individual subjectivity comes into play, and the need for others to comment as well. I may be the minority here instead.
