Ha! I think my head is tilted because my photos always need 1-3° counterclockwise rotation to be level. Good to know it isn't just me!

I believe all my photos need editing and the first thing I do is straighten my pictures and then crop them if necessary. The difference can take a ho hum picture to a keeper

When I'm shooting bands, I straighten the photos so the mic stands are vertical. And cropping goes without saying.

I liked this a lot. I end up cropping most of the time too. I was surprised how much you cropped the examples that you used. I guess that my style is that I want some of the environment in the photos. So I will need to go back and see if cropping more could help improve some of my favorites.

When I do landscape photos I use the camera's built-in level when I'm using a tripod.

I very much agree. Level and plumb (as they say in the trades) takes any confusion out of a visually complex image.

Thank you, David. I also have my photos 2.0° off horizontal, but my eye still sees these images as being straight. Once, when a pro was reviewing my images she said, "You do know that all your images are not straight?". So, now, I use auto-straighten in DXO.

Thankyouthankyouthankyou.
I have always used crop and straighten to help me get more impact in (almost) all of my images. I figured the pros such as yourself didn't do this and I was 'cheating' to try and get similar results.
Now that I know professionals occasionally employ these tricks, I feel a LOT better about doing them too.
Keep up the amazing tutorials, David!

What is the biggest you'll ever what to print your personal images? Let's say you have the resolution to print a desired 3:2 image with dimensions of 24" x" 16" using standard print resolution of 300 DPI. This is 7200 x 4800 pixels (just under 35 MP), which will be fine for a likely more common sensor size of 36 MP. After cropping, how much are you willing to lose in resolution? Do you matte the frame at, say, 21" x 14" to keep 3:2, resize and accept a 5400 x 3600 (a smaller frame of 18" x 12") to keep the image at the edge of the frame, or perhaps use content-aware or generative fill to get the image back up to 24" z 16"? What print resolution is your minimum before the image starts to become pixelated?
