Yes I must agree the crop is stronger. It gives the shot a diagonal composition and doesnt distract from the main subject. :O)

The original crop looks cleaner than the "bit stronger" one

I'm going to go with the crowd on this one. I like the original crop. There's something about the way the numbers seem to be floating in the sky that makes me look twice. -daveh

The first crop image is the best!

I like the big version best. I thought it was a plane or a car - what is it really ? The big version is already a very close-up image and here you can at least have a guess what it is which you can't in the cropped version - at least I can't .... It's just three letters floating in the sky. In the big version there is context enough to have a guess about what it is. I like the green and blues together too. Gitte

hi Gitte, it's over the entrance to the building seen in the "oh my God, it's full of sky" pic.... thanks, and welcome to the group.... Jack
