Candid shot

People usually bash me for not cropping my pictures, so now I gave it a try. I personally like this crop, but I would like to hear POTN's opinion about it.

Taking while eating a sandwich and trying to adjust the settings with the same hand, who said its girls that only can multitask?

I chose to leave a little extra air, so he didn't get centered.

Here's the original picture:

Maybe best in a vertical crop. getting that huge blown out sky away and out of the frame?

I would agree with you, but I'm a huge sucker for bokeh.

Bokeh looks like the tree has lights, is this christmas time?

Not chrismas, I know.

Could you crop it, so I can see exactly how you would crop it?

The fence is getting renovated, so the fence is leaning on another part of the fence. Thus creating the tilting effect.

They must be renovating the building too.....

Cropping to eliminate the sky is easy and doesn't remove any of the oof background. That sky could have all the bokeh in the world and you'd never see it.

Simple crop in ACR

Not sure I like the multiple tentacles growing out of his head....

Leveled the verticals, burred more of the BG, still keeping the softness of the bokeh, little sharp on the glasses. 8X10 crop.
