Response to Young Kid and Shovel

Sometimes I am a slave to the full frame black line, and this may be one of those times. I did fiddle with cropping just a bit, but I liked the top, top left, and top right content areas so much that it would have looked awkward to remove only part of the bottom hence the 'aw heck, full frame it is' attitude. But I do understand your point and I do forego the original full frame on many of my shots but usually add a line to the final crop to separate the image both from a white background and a black one (w/a 1 pixel white border). Per my 'Beautiful Flaws' thread, I really love the uneven, slightly wobbly image edge that the full frame gives. I'd like to learn how some people do their borders, like Mike Dixon.
