I shot this quickly as I was crossing the street. I liked the effect of the dashed line receding away. When I was scanning it I looked at the crane and couldn't decide whether to keep it or crop it out. Finally I just left it in. What do you think, does it help or hinder the shot?

Sigma 70-300mm f4-5.6 APO Macro at about 135mm, set to f11 @ 1/250 with the 25A red filter.

I think it's a distraction--doesn't add anything to the photo. If you crop it, the building will no longer be in the center of the photo, which I think will improve it.
