Step 3Crop
Use your app to crop your photo. Cutting out irrelevant detail makes the subject stronger.
I chose a square format for this example, but it's up to you what shape you make your pictures.
Eagle-eyed observers among you will have spotted that I also turned the cropped image through ninety degrees. Not all apps have an option to do this. It's usually called rotate. Sometimes rotating a shot can be helpful, so how can you tell? Well, if it looks much better to you one way round than any another, then it's probably worth doing.
If your app can't rotate images, try holding your phone a different way up when you take the shot. It's usually not a big deal anyway.
