Hi

If this was mine I'd make it into a panoramic losing the upper dark area which in my opinion just distracts from the other composition - but little old suggestions aside I just love the playfulness of this shot, and it is very nicely thought-out

All the best
Matthew

Nice design and idea - Matthew's crop suggestion is a good one.

Why did the grasshopper cross the road? I agree with Matthew. I would also like to see an f stop around f22 with the focal point just at the feet of the hopper trying to get more of the road sharp. Aaahhhh such whimsy!
