The crop isnt working for me. Have you thought about doing a square crop?

Default Amazing

I love this photo the colors are great the focus spot on, although windrider has a point I don't like the vertical crop, horizontal would be much better if not square.

I just never cropped, square would be the best I think. The only PP was resize.

Thanks,
Phil
