Renaissance Revisited - Buzzard's Back

Don't know if this would be correct, but I've devised a simple formula for determining exactly how much a photo has been cropped. In the original of this shot the total # of pixels is 12,212,224, hence 12 MP. After cropping, this portion is only 1,461,975. Doing the division reveals that only 12% of the pixels remain. Thus, it has been 88% cropped...that is, 88% of the original pixels have been removed, leaving 12% in view. Does that make sense?
