    Thanks Roy and John. Had mixed feelings about it - first thought it had potential, but not sure what to do with it, so finally had a try. Here is the original which was taken on a trip to Melbourne. Any suggestions?

    I think it looks a lot better in colour, Jim because it shows the autumn colours. As a result the expression becomes a comment on the season because she appears to glancing at the bare branches and dying leaves.

    Showing the image in its natural context does change things a bit, I can see why you cropped.

    I think this is a really cool, unique and fascinating image. Both versions work. The crop helps.

    The crop and color make all the difference in the world. Now there's a story there.

    Thanks for sharing.

    I kind of like this crop because it shows the relative size based on the man climbing the stairs...

    Very interesting approach, Richard, thanks! I wonder why the colours are more muted or is that not intentional ?

    Muted colors are not intentional. I copied the image using "Clip It" and opened it in Photoshop. I did nothing except crop the image...

    Not a problem, Richard. I was just interested. I use two monitors here - one for Affinity Photo, which is great but am still learning (and occasionally Photoshop). Only use Lightroom on one monitor, though maybe I should experiment with that one too. My two monitors show colours differently - I must calibrate them both soon. Only usually do so on the main one, which I mostly view the images on.

    Looks like a Giantess looking down on us mortals, picking one out to eat. But that could just be my imagination.

    I really like the first image.
