HTML CSS Fit image in fixed size

Question

I know this topic has been featured a couple times but none of the answers given to those questions fixed my problem. That's why I'm asking it here. I have a site where I have a standard Bootstrap card with an Image above it, But It looks like this

How can I make the images so they automatically fit in the middle and don't look like they're stretched out?

This is my HTML code (There is no CSS attached, Its standard bootstrap)

<div class="row mt-4">
            <div class="col-md-4">
                <div class="card mb-4">
                    <div class="card-image">
                        <img class="card-img-top" src="images/example.png">
                    </div>

                    <div class="card-header">
                        <h6 class="m-0">Some text</h6>
                    </div>
                    <div class="card-body" style="height: 130px">

                        <p class="m-0">Some text</p>

                    </div>
                    <div class="card-footer">

                        Footer
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
</div>

Answer 1

The best thing to do is to use the image as a background in conjunction with background cover. This will allow the photo to grow and resize without looking wonky.

 .card-header { height:200px; background-image:url('http://www.fillmurray.com/g/500/200'); background-size:cover; background-position:center center; }

Answer 2

add this to your 'img' styling:

img { height: 200px;width:100%;object-fit: cover; }
