Old habits sure do die hard. One of the habits that was most difficult for me to change is the notion of cropping in post production. I was raised on the idea that getting the framing right in camera was the only option for a serious photographer. The lens image was somehow sacred. The real problem is that early on I was too easily swayed by the loud mouthed advocates one kind of dogma or another. Avoiding conflict is one of the characteristics of being an introvert. These days I just do what I please and let folks eat their own dogma.
