Yesterday I tried to upload a photograph to share on my Instagram travel accounts.
This was the original picture:
I know this is a tall photo. Its sizes are 3000 x 5000.
Of course, I didn't expect to fit this picture on Instagram perfectly because a regular Instagram post size is 1080 x 1080.
Still, I need a better adjustment. This is how Instagram cropped my picture:
A Statue of Liberty without the torch? No, this is obviously not what I am looking for!
So, I checked other options. I clicked on opposite arrows on the bottom left of the photograph.
Instagram dimension options are 1:1, 4:5, and 16:9.
1:1, as you see, make my Statue of Liberty without the torch.
4:5 makes this:
It is closest to the original one but it adds white borders.
And, 16:9 is this:
Where is the rest of my Statue of Liberty?
Finally, I tried the option "Original".
The option "Original" adds white borders to my picture. So, this doesn't work for me!
So what can I do? How can I get a tall picture to fit on Instagram?
I need a tool to crop my tall images for Instagram as I want.
And I found it!
