Some photography advice please
« on: 22 September 2012, 20:51:44 »

I need a passport size photo to send on line to be added to a document as ID

My question is, I can take a photo and put it on the laptop, and I realise that I can change the size, I think I can work that part out but what size is a passport photo?

Thanks
