I'm about to hit the kitchen, but just before I do I thought I'd ask a quick question...
In photography we're always told to "fill the frame". So here are two images of the same thing... and I'd like to know whether you prefer:
or
Image B
For those interested in such things, this is a hazel twig in leafing mode... 
Right... off to the kitchen I go... I feel a risotto coming on.

Pro That's really filling the frame then... especially with those fringy bits! 
Yep, chicken risotto it was... still some left if you fancy a portion...
Ooooerrrr... that doesn't read well does it... you know what I mean though!
Munzly
I like A. Cut yourself a forked twig and go water divining. 
Usksider
Pro Don't need to divine for water round here Munzly... the wet stuff is everywhere! 
I stand with Munzly. I like A.
Usksider
Pro Ah ha! The original shot composition...
a for me dont, ask why!!
Usksider
Pro Why? 
i like my eyes to be filled with lots of sight!!!!!
Usksider
Pro Of course!
la_spice
B for me!
No risotto for me thanks I've eaten. A glass of wine wouldn't go amiss though! 
Usksider
Pro You like the fringy bits too then is it? 
How about a Shiraz by way of a change?
la_spice
I'm not sure what it is I can't quite put my finger on it .....
Shiraz would be lovely
Usksider
Pro I'll hold it out for you.... nice and close... so you can have good old grope!
Here you go... room temperature of course.
la_spice
Of course
Usksider
Pro Cheese and grapes?
la_spice
That had just crossed my mind!!!! 
Usksider
Pro Crackers?
la_spice
Oatcakes????
Usksider
Pro Solid porridge....
la_spice
I guess so!
Usksider
Pro 
la_spice
A cornish wafer would go down well
Usksider
Pro Don't have one of those either....
isadora101
I love the detail on B but if I had to choose then I would go for A as it makes for a prettier picture
Usksider
Pro I framed the shot as A of course, then thought... this could so easily be cropped.... hence B!
MissyMouse
B for meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I loved the fluffy edges of the leaf 
Usksider
Pro Looks as though the old maxim for filling the frame really works then.
Eyelashes.... that's what those hairs remind me of...
Barmac
Pro B for me to. Just looks really cool ........ and prickly - lol.
Usksider
Pro Welcome Barmac.
All those hairs are incredibly soft of course, but they could so easily be spiky like cactus plants.
depends what you are doing with it.
I'd love to take B, blow it up and put it on a wall.
A is interesting coz of the contrast of brown and green.
HMMM, think i prefer B actually

Usksider
Pro A big version of B printed and displayed would look quite impressive... would you rotate it?
