Hurst Spit ~ 2

An unconventional crop I know, but I hope that you agree that it works, if only to print off as a bookmark!!

Here is my more conventional shot of these two people at Hurst Spit.

I like this - daring crop, nicely spotted. It's probably just me but I would want to straighten the horizon.

[Jen Hudson]

Great crop and perfect for bookmark.

[Reva]

Cool creative crop!

[Sean O'Neill]

@johnl Thanks. I have a simple rule with horizons. Straighten if it was straight and I shot it wrong. If not, leave as is.

[Sean O'Neill]

@johnl ...but I hear what you say.

[Simply Amanda]

COOL!

[Debbie]

yes a good bookmark (or a triptych with the whole image which is also very good)

[Ivan]

An upright letterbox! - it works!

[Danny G.]

Love the crop!

[Michael Elliott]

Such a cool crop. Great to think outside the box.

[Judith Johnson]

I like the crop, - it works.

[David Orman]

A great crop - no question. More importantly, it's perfect for the capture -- it's part of the composition. Brilliant!

[Jocasta]

I love this crop - but I do like the unconventional - another FAV. So glad your gorgeous b&w Stonehenge made PP - absolutely brilliant photo.

[Sean O'Neill]

@jocasta Thank you Jocasta, I always appreciate your very kind and constructive words.

[Sean O'Neill]

@davidorman Thank you David, I very much appreciate your comment there.

[Chris]

This is very clever and very successful. It is quirky which I always admire - can't beat a bit of originality. has to be a Fav.

[Hubregt Visser]

Normally I dislike crops not sing the standard length/width ratio, it's like some composition error needs to be hidden. This is one of the exceptions were the crop works fantastic. Very powerful! fav!

[Birgit]

Didn't even need to see the more conventional one..loved the 'pinterest' crop.

[Humphrey Hippo]

Love the quirky crop. :)

[Junko Y]

This crop says so much! The seemingly endless skies, symbolic and full of breath!

[Lisa Stein]

Fav! Love the crop! Great layers of interest in this shot!

[Ross Walker]

You can do no wrong. You seem to be able to come up with inventive, unconventional stuff that captures people's imagination. I'm not sure I would want to hang this on my wall, but as you suggested, it would make a heckuva gorgeous bookmark.

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

IT WORKS!!!

[Robyn]

Definitely works for a bookmark. It reminds me of a vertical shot that I took in a photo shoot a couple of weekends ago; curious what the family thought of it; I thought it was cool. :-)

[Andy Roe]

You don't see many panoramics in the portrait mode - this one works really well.

[Penny Price]

Love this, it's the crop that does it for me.

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

I like this very much. I think the crop emphasises the layers in the shot and I'm a sucker for small figures in great open spaces, the concept always makes me thnk of how small we are in the scheme of things. Fav.

[Sean O'Neill]

@dulciknit Thank you Alison, that is why I shot in this style very often, so you have made my day :)

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

That's good, I'm glad. I like to do this too, for the same reason.

[Nia]

Love this crop! Fav

[Penny Milner]

Cool crop
