kinda what I figured. It's odd that none of those are cropped, but they all are not the right shape for the calendar.

Four of the five appear to have an aspect ratio of 3:2, which sometimes doesn't fit the template very well.

Canon people believe in 3:2.

Canon people believe in 3:2.

Nikon APS-C people do too.

Hey yall. Just saw this thread and love the conversation and photos! As for me, I shoot square frame alot. And I'm in the Fuji fam. I also shoot alot of 16:9 because it helps with framing for my video work. I'm a contrarian though. Give me an option that no one else is using. I'll take that one

Here's a vertical 9:16 of my old rooster Bob Marley that was killed by a mink this past winter. I inherited in 2018 from a neighbor that passed away. Good long run for a free range leghorn.

Some shots I am considering entering in the calendar contest. I have not run them through the cropping template for calendar layout yet. I'm clearly biased as they're my photos and my birbs, so feedback appreciated. I have issues with all of them, honestly.

Love this one. I like this crop too because of the slight upper-right weight. If I was getting crazy with the editing I might add a bit of contrast and bring those darkest darks down to black.
