    You need to find a bigger distance between trees, there. She didn't fit!

    Yes I have always "faked" the film borders, they aren't even the correct scale. You think I could crop in a handheld rangefinder camera that well?!

    I just like using borders of some kind because I tend to blow out skies and highlights and I hate it when pictures sort of flow out of their frame....

    No it's not automated. I keep a file and I even erase a little in the upper right like a real film holder would fade a little up there. I used a real border to start with but ended up drawing it with the Pen tool and working on the edges here and there.

    I guess that makes me guilty of something.

    I always thought that printing through the rebates was designed to show that the picture was composed in the camera-
    at least, that's the message I get when I see it-

    ok, well, used to get...

    I don't shoot Kodak film, so that bit never registered with me-
