A tighter shot of the last post. The composition of the last one bothered me a little bit, but if I cropped it tighter keeping the same aspect ratio, I'd lose the wisteria or come in too tight on the bottom. A friend said she didn't like the blurred vignette I added, but part of the reason I did that was to compensate for the composition problems.

Obviously there are rules of composition that will make an image more dynamic, but there is certainly a subjective aspect to composing your frame also. I shot this location 3 times, each time getting closer in. Perhaps this closest view is the strongest and simplest of all. I'm open to comments...

ADDENDUM: It's been said there are no new ideas, only those restated. I had a deju vu moment today when I stumbled onto this image taken in Italy. Small world, huh? :-)
