Mar 11, 2016 21:49 | #2  Permanent banI wouldn't crop it. What I'd do is rotate it a bit so that the vertical lines in the frame are, well, vertical (this will crop the image, though; I'd make sure the crop doesn't give the dog a nail clipping), and apply a vignette so that the emphasis is on the dog, because as it is now, all the bright areas are mighty distracting.

| Permanent ban Hmm, now the verticals point towards the left. 'The success of the second-rate is deplorable in itself; but it is more deplorable in that it very often obscures the genuine masterpiece. If the crowd runs after the false, it must neglect the true.' —Arthur Machen
