Just change the ratio - make it a 7:5 ratio or 10:8 instead of what it is now (assuming 3:2). This will allow you to lose some horizontal room but none vertically. Also will make it easier to buy cheap frames/mattes when you want to hang it.

And you really should hang it, It's a very nice picture. I don't think you need to change the crop at all in the first place, except for the framing issue.
