I think the crop works well however it brings in a lighter tone on the lower left side which I find a bit distracting.
I'd also say the image was tilted maybe a degree or two left to right which jars for me as it seems a shame to have all those horizontals and for them not to be level. That said I'm willing to accept that's my problem and I can happily live with the image as is!

Thanks. You were right in that it was tilted. I straightened it, removed a bit of distortion and darkened the lower part a bit.

Superb production, Cristobal. It's an arresting picture that compells me to keep looking at it. It's like I shouldn't be viewing this scene and the guy in the glasses has caught me. I really like this one.

I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

Thanks Tom, it does have a voyeuristic feel, you're right!
Thanks Richard. It's interesting, although I like the photo, I didn't think much of it. Now, after the round of edits, I like it a lot more. This is what Dgrin is and should be about! Thanks!
