What we must take care of is that while we download an image at our system we must not forget to rename it as per our convenience and easily remembered name so that it can be found when needed. At the time of cropping it is strongly advised that first we make of copy of the original image and then putting changes into the particular copy, this would avoid any unintended negative pitfall in the image.
