august-december 2007 Acrobatics - recrop

Very rarely do I significantly re-crop something out of camera, but

this shot seemed like it would work very well as a landscape rather

than portrait shot. Now though I'm quite undecided on which I prefer,

so am soliciting feedback on which crop is preferred and why. The

other version is at: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=6630893

Both are lovely. I prefer this one... not exactly sure why. She looks less 'boxed in'and the focus seems to be more on her stretch than the hang!!?! Beautiful work.

I love this image as presented here. Just the right amount of space without losing the model and enough to give a sense that she is not in a confined studio. The model is gorgeous and well lit. Her pose strikes a pleasing balance between gymnastic art and erotic sensualty. Simply wonderful! 7/7

Absolutly Gorgeous! The inversion is perfect it is.
