The shot, as it's presented, seems to be open to a lot
of possibilities compositionally. I like what the
photographer chose in that it appears evenly balanced
vertically. I agree that the bottom third could be
cropped, but does he have more sky to play with? If
not, then losing the bottom third may be a mistake. As
far as left or right go, I enjoy seeing things in the
middle sometimes.
