    At first I was going to toss this picture. It's got no focal point; it's just a jumbled bunch of birds with a queer name. But then I started imagining how it might be used. It is sort of a cool pattern...

    What if it was printed on a 30-foot wide piece of glass to serve as a room divider? Or what if it were printed on a wallcovering to go along a hallway?

    What do you think? Keep, toss or change it? What would you do?

    I would certainly keep it Henry. As you say it could be used in various ways. Even all the way around a central round support /. If as a long wallpaper or such I think I would remove the few birds on the edges which are cut in half etc.

    I like this just fine, no cause to toss it. The exposure is good and I like the almost monochromatic appearance. John Robinson's idea to remove the partials arounc the borders is a good one.
