My question to Photo-Focus members ( and anyone else who would like to provide an opinion)

Would you crop or not crop out the ghostly Mark on the left ? It was very frustrating to miss out on the rest of the circle but it was setup on a tripod and I had no idea that he would even be in the image because he was always on the move. Don't get me wrong - I'm happy to have a resident ghost, just not one encircled by an incomplete circle :-) I doubt I could successfully remove it using PP. However if I crop in drammatically the dais looks lopsided or I lose the blue squiggles.

 

You can see some of Mark's images at: www.flickr.com/photos/marksilvaphotos/8477474577/in/photo...

 

For those who may enlarge this, I think the little brown shape behind the girls was a prop. Not sure if I could effectively remove this either due to all the line patterns
