    Hey Greg,

    Funny you say that, I was about to delete this one and upload another one which is a bit closer.


    Edit: Done the switch.

    Despite the fact that I don't find the subject intriguing, the sharpness, light and PP are excellent. I really feel pulled on to the dock and find myself exploring the landscape beyond.

    Re: Pump

    The lighting is very nice and i love the names on each side of the pump of the boat slip owners. Maybe a bit too contrasty but thats all I got. Not sure if I would want this centered and symetrical....

    As always, you done good.

    Re: Pump

    My problem with this photo is the angle of the dock which is putting me off. I think I would prefer it if the dock was straight but then the post would not be vertical - Hmmm!

    Awesome colors, love the calm water surface , I would hate to see it stirred by motor boats

    I tend to like more angled composition vs this straight on look of the pump/dock, if straight on , may be change the height of the view ?

    Beautiful colors and light. I mean, wow. Sharp as heck, too.

    I find the lights to the right and left of the frame a tiny bit hot, but fantastic shot, overall.

    Roger, I see what you're saying, I weighed the option also, and thought this was the way to go. thank you.

    Armando, thanks
