Oh man, this is incredible. For what it's worth, I sincerely doubt this image would have nearly the power, if you'd cropped it any other way.... in-camera or in-post. Very well done. --Nancy

What a powerful image! Actually I like the fact that it's "in your face" I think it adds to the impression of power and fury, great shot...Penelope

Thanks for the suggestion, Carlos. Unfortunately, this shot is cropped very little, so there is no more. This other shot is "backed off" a little more, but was taken on a nicer day so the mood is totally different:http://www.pbase.com/icicle50/image/36094647/original

Well, it DOES look angry! I like the starkness of it, it carries the anger beyond the word... still, I feel that the crop is a bit too close and that makes the shot feel a bit busy, the other thing is that if you take a wider shot it might give a better sense of proportion to the viewer. I have my own version of this here if you are interested in taking a look: http://www.photosig.com/go/photos/view?id=1289437 . Best Regards! Carlos Ch.
