- Comment Nice. I think it would benefit from small re-crop (little bit off from left side and top). —kallerna 19:19, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Not for me, —kallerna. Rule of thirds. Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:57, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I'm aware of the rule of thirds. However, the point of this photo is not the unfocused part, and it is dominating now. The photo would be more valuable with tighter crop. Please compare with this. —kallerna 17:26, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
- OK —kallerna, I've uploaded a cropped version and of course the original is still there. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:36, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
