The original has ®o«t 800 percent too much build* --snd the figure Is "lost." "S wonderful what a bit of trimming will do for the average pleure-- and it's especially worthwhile t you're planning to have an enftrgement made. For the past few veilings, we have been going hrough our summer shots, studying he prints and trimming those that oclude too much--and we're get- Ing a lot of pleasant surprises. For example, here's a landscape hot that looks just so-so. Too much «lank sky--no clouds that day. So, re try covering up part of the sky, •nd mask out a telephone pole at he left that doesn't "belong." It now •ecomes a very pleasant scene-- rorth at least a 5 x 7 enlargement. Is a guide for enlarging, we mark he print, and then trim away the >arts we don't want Then here's a shot of Jack cllmbng into his canoe. Good action--but £e camera was too far away, and llted a bit to one side. So, we mark iff just the part we want--a middle lection that takes in only about half •f the original picture. This trimming idea works for everybody's pictures--yours as we# as ours. Pick the part you want-*- throw away the rest--and you ha^S a better, more interesting picture A good system Is to cut out two. . L-shaped pieces of cardboard, tuife them end to end, and use them at' a movable "mask" over the prinl. By adjusting the cardboards, yo*~- can really find th« "heart" of the picture. Then, having found the real pictures, you can proceed to make ej^ largementa, or have them made-- thus bringing out the detail acrff quality that comes with large sizfe And, chances are, you'll find you'll* a better picture - taker than yott thought John van Guilder SLOCUM'S LAKE Mr. and Mrs. Harry Matthews were callers at McHenry last Friday.
