I can see that a better framing balance could be achieved by lobbing off a bit of the left side of the picture. I cropped it as I did because I hope to mount it in a show I'm going to have in September and I wanted some space to play with in order to matt it as required. But, for the web, I agree with you - I should crop it tighter. I'll work on that and repost. Thanks much for the input. A good learning experience.

Both lovely to look at Howard. this one <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/PenderBirds/RufLftForW.jpg.html> could lose a bit off the left - when my eye drifts over there I feel a bit lost - like why is "all" this space here? YMMV Regards, George Lottermoser
