I'd say "cropped," but not for the reason I initially thought. This 
is almost confusing. When I first looked at the uncropped, I felt 
that the large plant at the left should be cropped out, as it took 
the eye away from the creek. But when I looked at the cropped 
version, the plant no longer bothered me, because the creek just 
appeared closer.

P.S. I'm writing this before reading other people's comments. Now 
real curious what they have to say.
