Being a photo of a cluster of small white flowers against a leafy
backdrop.
I’ve started cropping a lot of pictures into a 1:1, i.e. square, shape.
It’s probably just a phase I’m going through.

I often wonder what Ansel Adams thought about aspect ratios. Has a study ever been done on his crops? All that to say, sometimes I think squares are nice. The rest of the time I think 3:2 is nice. But 4:3, man, that's a dog's crop.

I like square crops too ... but more to the point, are those potato flowers? Or some other Solanum. Maybe Solanum crispum, one of the ornamental climbers.
