    Real legs in or out??

    A couple wanted a different picture...so I tried this. Some like real legs in , some like it out?? What do you think. Also I have just a basic software program so I cant clone the legs out (could only crop photo). If someone is out there that could help...what would it look like cloned out?? Thanks again!

    Re: Real legs in or out??

    First, very nice shot. I first thought it was a double exposure.

    I like it without real legs, but also don't want to see the bottom cropped enough to make it look like the reflected legs are cut off. I mean, even though they aren't visible, there should be room for them. Do you have more on the sides of the original? Try rotating so that the real feet are straight across from each other and then do a minimal bottom crop and see what it looks like.

    lovely shot and very creative. The thing about the legs is , it's very very tough decision. good luck. hmm. I wouldn't know this a reflection right away without them. So a part of me says keep them in, but when i crop it using the browser, it's still very effective in a dreamy sense. so basically, i would like either version. sorry for not helping much.

    having said that , i think the consensus will be to crop them out.
