    I usually assume Im going to print the picture as it is framed through the camera. I rarely do much cropping in PP. With that being said, sometimes it is necessary to crop an image otherwise. Not being too familiar with Halifax, I really see no relation between the sign and the tower. I probably would have framed it horizontally, maintaining the brick wall on the right, and keeping the sign on the left. Exclude the pedestrian sign, and include a little more of the Alehouse sign and that is what I might have done with this. MAybe what he did is a little more appropriate for your vision. I would go back.

    Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!

    Visiting this again, not sure what else surrounds this building, I might try and back out further, and encorporate a little more of the surrounding area(Halifax) into the image. If it turns out you may want to show the pub what you got, they may want a piece of it.....Photography really is the heart of marketing for many businesses.
