Two images of Sunshine coast with different aspect ratios. The portrait image shows too much sky and does not focus on the beach, ocean and buildings which the landscape version does.

Surfers Paradise during the day with a slanted photo and straightened one. The slanted one shows too much beach whereas the straightened one gives a good look at the buildings and everything in shot despite being quite tight.

The correct aspect ratio for images in an online article is16:9 and that is what they will be in my final project.
