I’ve seen that professional photographers use white borders around their photos on Instagram, why do they make their photos smaller by doing that? To preserve image quality?
If that is so why don’t they just use standard 1:1 , 3:4 or landscape mode which ig supports instead of custom crops
It kind of draws your focus to the art and reduces how much the surroundings affect it. I like it for prints, but not so much for online; not that it’s wrong
