How do I save a photo after I have zoomed in on it? I want to save the zoom-in as a new photo and can't work out why this doesn't work the same way saving a cropped image, or adjusted image does. Thank you.

I can save a cropped image or an adjusted image. Thanks, Lily A.

A zoom is just changing your view of the image. It doesn't actually permanently change the image.


What application are you working in? Do you want to enlarge the whole image, or just save a zoomed-in portion of it?

Hi Matt, thanks for your reply. Have realised that Zoom in Iphoto is just a viewing tool and not an editing tool.


Was creating beautiful abstractions by zooming in and wanted to create a new image of the result. Have since discovered that cropping after zooming takes me a little way to where I want to go but it isn't the same effect. Will perhaps have to try to create it when actually shooting. Am doing a photoshop course in February and maybe will learn a bit more then, too. Am pretty much an amateur just finding my way.


Thanks again,


Best, Lily
