Thanks for the input, Jeremy. I usually don't like to crop, but in this case I think the bottom does need to be chopped off since there really isn't much going on.
I really like the B&W version too. I think I'm going to make a good size print of this image.
Well there, as Russ would say, is the answer. Like Mr Punch's Advice To Young Persons About To Get Married, the answer to "Crop?" is "Don't".
I do like the b&w.
Jeremy
