Looking over the body of my work I see that...I'm neither. I seem to shift back and forth. But...for up close portraits I'm almost always vertical while my horizontal images are more pulled back, using background and depth to add to the portrait. But not always, just a trend. And sometimes I shoot where I know I'm going to crop the image to be square because it suits the composition. Adam _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
