It's just that I'd like more MB in case I want a large print. It is a fairly narrow irrigation ditch. No way to place the cattail perpendicular to the wave direction..if that was your thought. Also, it's not apparent, but it was leaning back and to the right. I tilted the vertical hold to give myself cropping room. Shooting direction was, also, influenced by there being a lot of water grasses intruding at the edges of the frame. Needed to clone out a few as well as their shadows.
