Paul,
I'm sorry for not saying thank you before.
In my opinion, you're absolutely right about how symmetrical objects are
supposed to be displayed. I even took the liberty to quote you and your
explanation... I hope you don't mind.
Thanks again for taking the time to comment my PUG submission and for the
insight.
Best regards,
Eduardo.

My suggestion to crop was only intended to correct the symmetry of the
two sides. If you look at the photo, you'll see the two arch shapes on
each side are almost identical. However, the area on the right is
slightly wider and its midpoint appears to be just a slight amount
lower. If you were to rotate the picture one degree or maybe even just
half a degree counterclockwise (in Photoshop) and then crop just a
slight amount to make the two arches equal, it would be perfectly
symmetrical. This isn't critical, but to my eye, something that is
almost symmetrical seems to beg for perfection. Again, it's only my
subjective opinion.
Paul
