When Is a Square Crop Appropriate?

Yes - I think Jim's crop is the best given so far for the original picture. As he says, it gives most impact, drawing the eye to the water drip. Sometimes a square crop just isn't the best choice.

Many thanks for the insight, links and crops, everyone.

Jim Bryant - I see what you mean by your crop. When I re-shoot, I will try to get in tight.

Thanks again. (I was out of town for a few days, which is why I was so late in replying.)
