filling the frame

I just realized that I told you earlier not to worry about filling the frame and am now telling you to fill the frame. My earlier comment about disregarding filling of the frame is in reference to lateral views of close winged moths and spreadwing moths, where a square frame leaves lots of unfilled space at the top and bottom.

This will do

This one is nice and square, but you could have cropped to better fill the frame. Steve will probably not say anything, but I bet he crops it down some more.

Ok, thanks, good to know. For Steve to crop it smaller should be easier than the other option!
