Why YSK: I’ve been seeing an increasing number of phone photos shared online in 9:16, 9:21 or similarly tall aspect ratios, often with parts of the subject cut off. I’ve asked a few people why they cropped their images that way, and none of them knew they were cropped.

    Eh, this one’s not as accurate anymore, most phones have digital enhancement that improves the photo when you zoom in. This digital enhancement is not done if your subject is really small in the photo. For stuff thats actually far away zooming is better, if you’re just framing a shot then yeah crop it later.
