Framing options...tighter crop vs 'distracting' elements
Coots are feisty little birds at this time of year and for anyone who has not seen them, they have these outlandishly large feet that they use as weapons - they lean back in the water and pound their opponent into submission in a flurry of water.
The water plays havoc with the AF and this was one of the better shots - but here is my dilemma:
- the looser crop is already cropped about 15% linear and has the duck on the right which is OOF so not too bad
- the tighter crop takes out the duck but is cropped about 30% linear compare to the original, and at the limits of what I would call acceptable
Which option would you take?
