thanks.
I chose not to crop this tighter for a few reasons.
......It looks a little empty without something on the right
......I didn't want her body right up against the right margin
......her hands would be in the center of the cropped picture
......I 'always' crop to standard dimension and cropping the right would cut out the little boy in the background
The one thing about this photo that I find distracting is the headless figure in the background. She is wearing red, too, which makes me want to look in the background at her. What does the young child have on it's face?
