I don't recall saying that .... did I? Truth is, 99.9% of my work is cropped in the camera. I cannot recall over the last few years "ever" cropping an image - seriously. Unless it was something for a graphic that I was making (button, splash page etc).
I'm from the old school Donnie - ya' know....back when everything was shot on film and there was no Photoshop. I learned early on that cropping within the camera is important and it's part of the skills needed to be a great shooter. Just like metering for correct exposure. I'm not one of the new crop of photographers who use Photoshop to correct their compositions and their exposures because they lack the knowledge to do it when they are actually shooting the pics. Some people use photoshop to "correct" for skills that they lack...and some people use photoshop to enhance their work to make it better. I'm don't consider myself a great shooter or anything like that - but I have mastered the basics of composition and exposure so I don't have to use photoshop to correct for my lack of skills in that department.
Like I said in my first post in regards to cropping....." I'm certainly not against recropping, but I just prefer to compose them when I shoot them."
