A winter's morning walk

[Chairman Bill]

Dick, ref the crop - I had thought that myself, then decided that was as I took it, so I'd leave it in. But on reflection, I think you're probably right

Although I like your image I do feel it would be even better if you cropped out that bit of fence post on the left (and perhaps also the fence on the middle right ??)

Hey Dick, be careful with the word 'crop' around here!   Perhaps "fill, content aware" ... but as to your suggestion -no, I think the out of focus post on the left retains authenticity for the shot and keeps it on a personal level, rather than a stock photo of a 'nice' scene. I would leave it in definitely.

I'd thought of the fence posts as in some way framing the shot, but the converging verticals left me equally wanting to omit them. I've ended up with the left hand side being a little bit of fuzzy wood & snow. I'm not sure it helps much at all

I agree. I find it extremely distracting.
