The other thing to consider, MAYBE, is the database itself. A database is a bucket in which you toss info. And while that shot of the daffodils above is compelling in its own way, perhaps, given the purpose of a database, the database would be much better served with a mugshot of a single blossom or broader mugshot of the clumps.
I appreciate the art more and try to compose my pictures well. But the police take mugshots of criminals for a reason (think database here). And who has an arty passport pic?
I still like the notion of the whole shot in play (or the customized crops as William suggested), but thinking on it...it may be that I should shoot and crop to center (and square) for database entries...which would render the notion of change to the thumbnails less compelling.
