Default Hells Rising

Hi everybody,
My main question about this image is about the cropping. I would like to crop a little bit more of the grasses off but the picture is already long and skinny enough. Do you think it is good the way it is or should I cut some more off? Any other comments would be hugely appreciated. Sorry about the link, I dont want to put the picture into the post because it would be too small.

I wouldn't crop any further, it works quite well for me the way it is.

I think it looks fine the way you have it. Nice shot!

And I would like it with about half of the grass cropped. To each his own taste, right?

Ahhhh yes. The old dilemna of the artists perception. Should I or shouldn't I.

Pesonally, I'd like to see more of the grass since you have some of the grass tops cut off in the foreground.

But then, you are the artist and will eventually have to make the choice.
