Agree with Christina completely. Vertical, 3x4 crop will improve the impact on the viewer of this shot. -Cat

But that's what cropping a photo is about. Adjusting the composition so that the elements work well together. What if you cropped in the sides and made it a vertically composed shot instead of close to square (if not actually square)? That would work better for me at least.

It is not a still landscape photo RK,
It is a bungy jump with fast movement in every direction. It is quite dificult to frame/shoot and including the rope in the photo is not the best. Every bungy jumper has different style and they normally do not repeat the 50 euro jump. You should realize that the photographer could not change his position a lot and to "chase" the bungy jumper. The boat from the background was moving fast too.

Technically its a great picture, compositionally find it falling short...find it too centered. - RK
