Wide angle photography takes practice as you have to use you imagination to perceive prospective images unless you walk around looking through the camera all the time. When we originally took this photograph, we thought the backlit leaves were the important subject. However, looking at the picture afterwards, it's the dark branches that frame the image that "makes" it. Consequently we think the cropped parts of the image look better than the original.
Photography notes:
The picture at the top of this page is cropped from the original. The uncropped image is at the bottom of this page. The 35mm equivalent focal length of the cropped picture would be 22.5mm.
