Too much fence on the (r) side of image?

Not sure if you would have the room, but I would like to see more space included in the image. It feels to crowded as is. By backing away the fence would not be so dominant and would make the proportions feel better.

I wish I had some room to move further back. I stood back as far as I could and did not have a wide lens with me. I agree that it would have been better to get a wider shot.  :)

I think it looks rather cramped; not because of unnecessary fence on the right but because of lack of space on the left. If you find yourself in that difficulty in future, you could consider taking more than one shot and stitching.
