Hero image for my challenge "Saving Your Corrupted Creation With Cropping!" in bad need of cropping (Link in comments)

Problem 1: AI-Fail: a) Wrist holding lantern and b) lantern's staff.

Problem 2: Composition: Person looks to the left, but negative space ("nothing") to the right.

1. Evolve with Juggernaut v9 Lightning, 50% noise

2. Inpainting repaired 1a), but only half-way 1b).

The remaining evolve gallery you can see at the temporarily enabled evolve gallery, when you click on that image-link:

The first image was

a) the 2nd (!!!) to the left

b, moving to right) cropping the right negative space.

c) enlarging with clarity upscale. Published that.

d) Not radical enough. To make the portrait look more interesting, I cut a further part of the right edge off, just slightly the back of this hair/hat.

I cut off the bottom edge, til the mangled wrist was gone.

I cropped a bit the negative space at the upper edge.

e, the left pic) A further enlarging of the image with Creative Upscale
