The crop works a lot better Christina as there are no distractions from the focal point & it makes for a better composition. Well done:-)

I cropped this down a lot. Is it too much crop? I'll link the original here in just a moment...

Yes without the road & curb the poles & shadows really come to the fore. Goodun Christina.

Hi Sharon, Thanks for the comment and the suggestion. I'll play with it and see what I think... maybe even see what you all think!

Excellent color, Christina, I love the bright yellow! This might be made a bit stronger if you cropped down from the top so that none of the curb shows. That would eliminate the distracting elements in the street and pare the image down to its essentials and would let us see the interesting shadows around the base of the hydrant better. ~Sharon
