photo cropping
Cutting picture edges
Photo cropping is the act of trimming away unwanted portions of an image to improve composition, focus attention on a subject, or fit a specific aspect ratio.
Digital editing makes cropping simple—select a rectangle and discard the rest: I cropped out the strangers in the background.
Cropping can dramatically change what a photo communicates, which is why accusations of misleading cropping arise in journalism and politics.
