How to reduce white space around floats














0















I have a two column document that features a couple of high aspect ratio (tall) floats which, including the caption, take up more than half, but not a full column. When I compile Latex always seems to give the figures their own full column and pad around them with white space. Is there a way I can "push up" the text after the floats to fill in the column and minimize this white space?



Here is a MWE:



documentclass[10pt,twocolumn]{article}
usepackage[margin=0.5in,showframe]{geometry}

usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage{graphicx}


usepackage{lipsum}
begin{document}
lipsum[1-10]
begin{figure}
begin{center}
includegraphics[width=50 pt, keepaspectratio]{./1x6.pdf}
caption{lipsum[2]}
end{center}
end{figure}

lipsum[1-10]
begin{figure}
begin{center}
includegraphics[width=50 pt, keepaspectratio]{./1x6.pdf}
caption{lipsum[2]}
end{center}
end{figure}
lipsum[1-20]
end{document}


A screenshot of the output is shown below, where the black boxes are the 1x6.pdf that I want to include. Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to include the 1x6.pdf in this post for the community to reproduce this.
