Spring, Old and New w/re-work
Shot yesterday evening. I had a few minutes to go wondering around the mountain side behind the house. This is the first of a couple I wanted to get some opinions on. I like it but is it a little top heavy?

I'd say a tad bit top heavy-maybe crop near the opening in the horizontal log. The flowers are so pretty.

I agree, I'd crop a little from the top. Great shot with the violets.

Make it 3-in-a-row, Thomas. Top heavy, but still a wonderful image.

Thanks guys! I'll crop a bit of the old log from the top and see what happens.

Another version, top cropped

Thomas, I definitely like the cropped version better. Both are good shots but the cropped version gives significantly more weight to the flowers and green foliage. A very nice image.
