Leiden, Olanda, 2010

comments welcome

Interesting and humorous shot. But to me, there's too much dead space at the top. I'd to an untraditional crop and present a rectangle will very little of that blank area at the top. I'd also leave off the border. The way the light is reflecting on the cobblestone on the right is terrific but losing its impact with the black border.

Just a humble opinion :)

Don't touch that blank space! Amazing shot!

Very humorous. While I am not a fan of having a large horizontal element running across the middle of a photo, in this instance it works to balance the legs showing with the height of the screen. Good job.

@Alberta. thanks for your precious suggestments. The picture was meant to be divided in two halves, with shapes appearing just on the bottom one and it was taken as such. however I had a second go trying to leave the blank in but roughly at 1/3 of the space and this is what came out. You may be right in suggesting an unconventional cropping but I'm kind of squeamish in abandoning the 3:2 format. As for the border, I must confessI never understand whether it adds something or it is useless.

@ Marco & James: glad you liked it, guys.
