I just wanted to try a crop where I left more to the imagination of the viewer. I will leave it to each of you to decide whether it works. Happy Trails!!

Owd Fella Tick (OFT), I was that impressed about your image The crossing, that I still can remember it very well, although it had been posted almost four years ago.
I can be wrong, but I believe that you've depicted the same cowboy and horse again. If not, than you have achieved your goal by stimulating the imagination of the viewer by cropping your image. If so, it's another proof that the above by me mentioned post still belongs to the TNC (Top Notch Category).

This one however is a very fine image too, my friend!

Looks good against the water background.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

I wouldn't call this "crop"...as I think it's pretty darn good.
Cornelius' memory is astounding!
Good one, Tick...and...happy trails, to you...

It works for me. I like the mans hand resting on the saddle horn and no more.

You would have left us guessing but I think Cornelius has let the cat out of the bag! Nice one for the b/w challenge Tick.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I don't think cropping this would have worked well. I like the view of the hand holding the reigns.
