Abstract In Steel - Exercise In Cropping

It took several attempts at cropping this image before I came up with something I liked, and definitely it involved throwing out parts of the image which were important but which were compromised by other issues. I would have liked to maintain that corner of the light in the upper right but the chain link fence background just doesn't work. I have even tried photoshopping it out and it's ok but not perfect. The rock in the bottom left is distracting and that could easily be removed in Photoshop but still leaves too much dirt in the bottom left corner.

Many if not most photographs involve this kind of compromise. Sometimes it works and other times... You can decide if it worked here.
