A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Why white borders around photos? (alien.top)

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
