The second (lower) of the two. The symmetry is better.

The second has more symmetry but I'd like the wheel to take up more of the frame as it does in the second.

I too prefer the second shot for the same reasons given by Hevans and Greypoint  :)

I prefer the symmetry of the second, but the spacing of the first.
Personally I would use this as a square format picture with the composition of the second.

Like the sound of that is it just a straight forward crop? Are square pictures easy to print out???

I am glad you all like the second one because that is what I was trying to achieve... should have taken a bit more time and zoomed in more to get the full effect. i only have so much time when out in town with SWMBO though ::) ::)

Yes, a straightforward crop would do. If you are thinking of printing it, I would look at a crop of 10"X8", that is a more square crop and you can find plenty of frames for that size.

Sorry your having problems with this.  Are you using the embed code generated for you below your pic (in the info), or did you type the links yourself?  I ask this because I corrected your post with the codes in the gallery, and as you can see it worked.  ???

I managed to do it just after... then realised that you'd corrected it! T'was indeed my error!  ::)
