OK this was taken a while back. I like this shot, but im a tad unsure on the crop. In particular the arm of Charlotte.

Its a tough on as I think that if you cropped so you had more of her arm in the shot, you are going to inevitably get more of the guy in the shot and this may elongate things and look a touch more awkward? I could be wrong as I haven't seen the original or have no idea how he is being held up! lol! But, as a concept and a shot, I really, really like this. Its quirky, different, well lit and nicely composed. Good stuff!
hi,
im sorry to say that for me its a very awkward composition, all too much leaning into the image from the right side and the left side space is not giving any real balance.
the arm is just cropped to the side of the frame and it looks to be more accidental that its not fully included. im all for modern compositions but his just feels totally out of balance for me.
coupled with that i dont go with the muddy white background with vignetting and the ladies expressions not doing it for me either. im surprised by this because there is some stunning work in your pf. i just think this has everything working against it.
sorry i cant be more positive.
regards
Phil
