So after looking at the shot from the other day, and thinking about the elements that I wished could have been improved with that shot, I decided that perhaps a simple crop would make the shot better.

So here's the crop and the original... place your vote and let me know which one you think looks better.

Original	Cropped

Technical Data: Canon EOS 7D, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM, 1/250 sec at f/11. Canon Speedlight 580EX II flash in auto mode and wireless control. Image Stabilization on. ISO 160. RAW processing in Adobe Camera Raw.

As usual, place your vote and then drop me a comment and let me know why you chose the one you chose.
