What Format do you shoot in? Landscape or Portrait?

I’ve spoken previously about how both can be used effectively – but I find that most digital camera owners tend to have a preference for one or the other.

Open up your digital image folder or digital image storage program and scan through your last couple of months of shots:

• What is the predominant format that you’ve been shooting in?

• Why do you prefer it? (is it a conscious or subconscious thing?)

• Do you ever intentionally mix it up?
