title: CGContextSaveGState invalid context
body: <p>I am developing an iOS-application which uses a live camera feed to scan for bar- and qr-codes. However sometimes I get errors.. these errors do not crash the application, but it might be a good idea to fix them. These are the errors:</p>

  <p>And I believe this code is responsible for the errors message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>- (UIImage *)cropImage:(UIImage *)oldImage sideCrop:(float)crop {
  CGSize imageSize = oldImage.size;
  UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions( CGSizeMake( imageSize.width - 2*crop,
                                                     imageSize.height ),
                                         NO,
                                         0.);
  [oldImage drawAtPoint:CGPointMake( -crop, 0)
              blendMode:kCGBlendModeCopy
                  alpha:1.];
  UIImage *croppedImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
  UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
  return croppedImage;
  }
