    Yellow Submarine

    Recent trip to playground with nephew. I know portraits should focus on eyes, but this was the picture Race liked the best.

    My question is, to crop or not to crop?

    Thanks.

    I like the wide view if you brighten the yellow. The strip of sky on the top adds a lot-you have just the right amount.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    I like the top one better. It gives more detail into the subject matter. With the second shot you cant really see what Race is in, its a bit confuseing. It mght not work as a portraite but its a great shot and probly a great memory for both of you.

    I like the top one better (suites the title)
    If the title were Race, I'd like the second better
