Ok here are mine. I actually have the opposite problem of this technique. I often zoom in and fill my frame and then remember that it's a 4x6 ratio and I will lose some of it when I crop to 5x7 or 8x10 for portraits. BUT...these pics are some I took of my dd's flowers she got for her birthday this week.

I removed everything from her dresser, and anything in the background that would show through the mirror, then I moved around and took several shots at different angles until I got as much of the flowers as I wanted with the least distraction. Then I realized...oooh this would be great for Amy's challenge this week, so I zoomed out and took a few "before" pictures to show with distraction in the b/g. I should have put all the junk back on the dresser and background too LOL

Before

after
