Actually, I have to admit that I find this image to be the least successful one among the photgraphic images that I've posted. This image seems to be problematic somehow, and, in my opinion, the problem lies primarily in my cropping of the image. I remember performing crops as tight as Alpha did, but didn't like them during the process. I was feeling as if I was loosing too much image area and many elements. Still, seeing Alpha'a version, not during the process but in a sudden way, shows me that tight crops may work very finely, and that I was including some unnecessary elements in my image, like the lower right bright area with two perpendicular lines. So, a lesson for myself: do your crops, even if you don't like the outcomes first...then save them...then, after a while, re-evaluate them on their own... :)
