innocence ---waking up Xpost

[natatbeach]

This is a cross post ---because I'm not sure about the cropping and whether I should cut of part of the head to eliminate any of the distracting dark areas... Any and all input on how to improve this shot or crop is welcome...

I think it's a good shot, period. There isn't anything that bothers me and above all, the image touches me somehow, gives me a good feeling and I consider that one of the most important aspects of a photograph. Very well done! A+

This is good. I like it. The dark area does not bother me at all. Try the crop and post a comparison or you might even be able to photoshop that area just so it is not so black.
But I think it is good as it stands.

I would remove some body and head to place more focus on the eyes.

I don't think cropping anymore would improve the image. I like the framing, enough shown to understand the subject. Real nice clean image, with a professional look.

Wouldn't change a thing. It's a beautiful photo.
