The original photograph was portrait which meant when I cropped to square I had a choice – focus on the lamp or the cobbles. I couldn’t decide. Fortunately though thanks to the new ‘image compare’ option I can ask all of you to decide for me! Look there’s even a poll.


I do like the lamps..

My vote counts more than it does in the political arena then. That’s something.

It counts in the political arena too, just unfortunately doesn’t have the result that we all want sometimes!

Wonderful perspective today, Becky! I did like the 2 lamps because they draw your eye to them. Love it and the poll!!! 🙂

The result of the vote is going to be a close call! I definitely go for the one without the cobbles.

My first preference was for the lamps version, but the bottom of that crop bothers me. The doors show this isn’t the upper story of a building, but the image doesn’t seem grounded. But then, I don’t like the lamp being cut off in the cobbles version. Perhaps a tie? Wouldn’t mind seeing the full image, though, even if it’s not square. Oh, and what was the poll you mentioned? I don’t see anything. Here’s mine today: https://grahamsisland.com/2020/07/17/abstracts-a-spot-of-orange/

I’ll share the full version in next gallery! Think you and Jude are in agreement that square doesn’t really work for this one

Both are gorgeous, but I like to focus on the closest subject, so the lamps!
