Yes and No Des :smile:

I like the complimentery colours of the bird and bg, and feel that a vertical crop would maybe suit the birds position better {personal taste}.

However, i don't feel there is enough dof along the bird for much of a crop/ enlargement, and the lack of dof would become more obvious as enlargement increased.
