Crop Art

Challenge #46 in the Language Of Light series. Hosted by OldArrow.

Challenge has finished

We often correct our images by cropping the originals. Sometimes it's because the optical characteristics were not ideal for the shot, and sometimes just to align the image with the composition rules. In this Challenge, show us your Original and the best Crop cut out of it. For this you'll have to make 2 entries. PLEASE SEE THE RULES FOR EXPLANATION how to present it! All the rules must be observed, so please read carefully.
