why wasn't this cropped? you either show the sculpture next to it or crop it out...you are allowed to crop, here, right? cheese and crackers.

Usually it's best to isolate your subject from distracting elements that don't really add to the shot. The arm and leg from the other character should be completely cropped out. The best way is to do it before you shoot. By turning the camera lengthwise you would crop the unwanted and would have been able to include all of your subject without cutting the feet off.
I sincerely hope this helps. Best of luck! :-)

too centered i think, and the bit of wood on the very right could have been cropped out

I think the small 'wooden gardener' at the right takes away from the pictue

Good idea, but remember the "rule" of thirds, you may not have cut off the other "worker" if you offset the shot.

oh my goodness, i see flowers! -8 hehe. jk

very cute garden creature. would have liked it more if either the cut off figure on the right was in the frame, or not there at all. i love the brick. provides not only a solid base for the wooden guy, but also for the composition.
