Cropping/Composition Help

[WetSparks]

Ive got this idea of photographing a shed load of the 'Urban Art' thats floating around these parts. Lots of kids with lots of spray cans

I have been thinking about photographing this particular scene for a while now, and this morning the opportunity and the light seemed right. Ive PP'd it with just a tweak to the curves and a bit of USM, but I just cant make up my mind about the crop. I've tried a left one, a right one and a top and bottom one but am still undecided. The one thing I did find was that by cropping across the top gutter line the picture looked too much like two halves, if that makes sense. Any way's have a look:

Whose Watching

Just for interest, heres a crop of another shot showing the detail of the figures.

Hee Hee! Curtain twitcher art!

I would crop just to the left of the traffic light and bring that diagonal of the pavement into play more.

Agree... Definately lose everything but the house.
Might also desaturate a bit and add some grain to the pavement

what they said^^^ Give it a nice contrasty process and it will look wicked!

I agree. Everything to the right of the house doesn't add anything.
