Thankyou for your comments:

Boris: cropping too tight is something that I am struggling to
overcome as I am learing to shoot (I over-crop in-camera).  I think
that my sub-consious sees the tiny image in the tiny view finder and
thinks that I need to be closer in order for the subject to be clearly
seen.... or something equally silly.

Rick: I took quite a few shots (this being the first) because I kept
getting annoyed that the flames would not 'be the same', and in the
end I chose this one for teh very reason that you mentioned.

Godfrey: It is interesting that you would say that.....   all my
thumbnails are cropped square, and just last night one of my friends
(not on the list) told me he thought several of my pictures made more
interesting compositions as the square thumbnails.  When I went back
to look at them that way, this picture was the first one to jump out
at me as wanting to be square.  Maybe tonight I will recrop and
repost......

thanks again for your input

Russell
