As with most other entries for this assignment you will probably hear about the interpretation of "Fill the Frame" and a square crop would certainly help to achieve maximum use of the frame I like the image as is.

If you don't go square maybe a tight off center crop--I mean try and not center your image--just a thought, though I'm thinking square crop will likely work.

Me likey!!! I agree that cropping in a bit would be good, but I don't think you want to loose the lines in the background and the vignette that you have going on - I find that all very pleasing. I would suggest cropping in just a touch on each side.

Great shot!

I like it, the background, and the interesting highlights (fluorescent lights?) in the glass. I agree that maybe it should be cropped tighter given the theme. Hard to say though since it will depend on the final interpretation by judges and voters. Could be I'm just reading the wrong thing into it.

Very nice and good idea - I agree with a tighter crop too

F/40? Cheese and crackers


I like it a lot, but I'm in the tighter-crop crowd too.

Hey. Thanks for all the c&c! Yes f/40 believe it or not!

So I played with the crop some (1x1, off-center) and I also gave a couple a surface blur. Comments on the latest ones?

1. Original



2. 1x1 without any surface blur



3. 1x1 with slight surface blur



4. 1x1 with a heavier surface blur



5. Off-center crop without surface blur



and finally, side by side

It just doesn't do it for me. Keep shooting!
