    I really didn't notice them that much. Good composition on this on. The lines could very easily be removed..

    Re: At the pond

    You call those power lines??? you should the ones over here.....lol....

    Very nice shot, my only issue is with that metallic shape at the left-center...right above the water....maybe a small tilt to the right with a small sidestep left to keep the compostion...

    but rather a very nice image!

    Nice image - power lines don't bother me that much. Might be curious to see it in b&w?

    It's a nice peaceful shot. I like the composition and the overall emotion of the folks here. you can almost feel the air and the quietness.

    The background is decent but I'd lose those lines, definitely. It will make it a lot stronger. Here's a shot of a model I took a few yrs ago. I removed the lines in Corel PhotoPaint. As you can see, a lot less distracting.
