It's not particularly well composed. The best crop would be tight on the turtle with nothing else in frame, but it already looks horribly blurry (.2s exposure time, yay) at this small size, so cropping that tight would make it even worse.

Therefore, the best cropping option is a 0x0 crop taken out of the middle. I.e., throw it out.

Why the hell would you use such a long exposure time for a handheld shot? It's pretty blurry.

Low light, presumably. He was at his max lens aperture, and getting the shutter speed up to something more reasonable would have required bumping his ISO all to hell.

The iso was at 64, 100 wouldn't have killed it.

Learn the rule of the thirds.
And the golden mean or square.
Learn basic composition rules.

Then you'll take better photos.

my weak attempt to improve your weak photo :)

I think you overestimate the ISO abilities of Kodak P&S cameras. ;)
