Yes, as a matter of fact I did. But I think it gets too tight. It could do
with a few more millimeters.
Another reason for not cropping too much is that the boys in the background
look absoluty beautiful when I zoom in (but not in the smaller JPEG, I
suppose). Like figures in an impressionist painting. It would be a shame to
get rid of them.
I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the suggestion, anyway !
