Thanks. I could have cropped in several ways. but I wanted the butterfly on the left moving into the scene. If I cropped the flower out, then the butterfly is moving out of the scene which I think would weaken the composition. I actually liked the flower because it serves as the next destination for our traveler. And consider also the title of the shot and the text description that I provided. So in keeping with the idea of chaos, I wanted the scene to have a certain chaotic element to it which I think the flower also provides. This is a story photograph as well as an editorial one.
However, if anyone is interested, I can provide the full photograph and let others have a shot at cropping and other tweaks.
Cheers,
