Is the out of focus branch to distracting in this photo? http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/f14/ca/y/Yosemite-5047.jpg.html I don't think a crop helps.<<<<<<< Hi Aram, A crop most certainly helps and makes it a beautiful "KEEPER PHOTO!" OK here's what you do! Please consider my crop comments as merely a suggestion and not written in STONE! However? :-) Crop the bottom off eliminating the two center lower leaves, at a point where the branch ( right side barely disappears!) along with the leaves! Be very careful that they just disappear! Be very careful here as you want the two leaves "LEFT & RIGHT" sides to anchor the image. I'd also look at "maybe?" nipping a bit off the top also. Not a lot, but just enough to give the image a horizontal format rather than square? There you go me "OLD SON?" ;-) It's just a smidgen of a crop, but hopefully makes and saves the photo.:-) cheers, Dr. ted :-)
