Title: A Ship, A Lighthouse, and Mt Baker on the Strait of Juan de Fuca
Post by: David Eckels on January 20, 2024, 07:17:10 pm

The lighthouse is about 3.5-4 miles away, the ship 5-6 ish, Mt Baker 86 or so.
I would appreciate any preferences for the 16x9 or 3x2 crop. Thanks.

My preference goes for the wider aspect (16-9). It's mostly because this is a landscape with a vessel. On the other hand, the tighter crop is more about the ship. I maybe completely wrong, though ;-)

Must be truly clear weather. I prefer 16:9, I see more of the landscape.

If for TV - 16:9

If for wall - 3:2

Good call, Slobodan, thanks.
