eric, for my tastes there is too much blank space all around. a crop into the subject may work better. love the thought. maybe would have been better with more lens.

Eric,
I can appreciate what you were trying to do, but I'm afraid that this one does not cut the mustard for me...The first impression that I get is that this is the way the world looks from the eyes of person with glaucoma and tunnel vision; all narrow and distorted. Go back to the original capture and see if it would be best to present it as a narrow crop from whatever angle you choose. Repost and lets see how it looks then...:cool:

I really like the idea Eric. It was hard for me to make out the moon though.

Do you mean crop it like this?

[Jackie Schuknecht]

Better Eric. I like what you are trying to do here. What about a little more off-centered???

[Alfred Forns]

I like it !!! The large in frame makes al the difference for me Might try for smoother transition to the dark and could go with a non conforming frame also !!!! Neat !!!

[Eric Driver]

Thanks everyone. This has really helped me and i look forward to trying new tactics in the field.
