Re: PESO - T-Baller
Bruce, really well caught! I sort of like the red cap bill on either side and your horizontal placement of sucker guy is great. If you have a bit more frame available at the top you might give the top of his head a slightly room..or not. If anything, I'd consider cropping the far right guy some to eliminate the nose and some of the mouth. If so, I would keep the subject in the same relative position by cropping some from the left side, but he cap bill really needs to dominate that side. Very well done as is, however.

It would retain the symmetry while eliminating the distracting almost-face on the right hand side.

Re: PESO - T-Baller
Bruce, I'd put back some of the right side guy's face. The isolated ear is an odd component on its own. Maybe include facial area over to the corner of his eye /or mouth. It would, also, locate the sucker guy more appropriately within the frame. Jack --- Bruce Dayton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Many thanks to all who have replied with your ideas.

Re: PESO - T-Baller
Hmmm. Good shot, but some tough choices here. If you had more of the guy on the left, I'd say crop less. But I'm guessing you don't, or you would have:-). As presented, he's not enough of a presence. So I would crop just tight enough to exclude the guy on the left, leaving the main character and the guy on the right. In any case, it's an excellent pic.
