Hi Jeremy!
Again a great series. especially the first one has that "certain something".

Question:
How close do you get and how much cropping to you need in post?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you! I try to get as close as possible. I would say for the most part I'm within 40' of most warblers. I don't like cropping below 1800 pixels on the shortest side and I would say the majority of photos is around that size, so roughly 65% I think. I resize to 1400x933 for my website, just in case someone wants to download one.

why do you choose 1400x933?

why do you choose 1400x933?

Because it still produces a very nice looking image for web browsing and doesn't give the ability to print out if someone wants to "steal" it. It might turn out nice on a 4x6 or 5x7 but anything larger and it won't look very good. I understand that putting things on the internet for all to see is what it is, but just trying to look out for myself.
