    Refections

    Could not decide whether or not to keep the two birds.Do they add or detract from this shot ? Comments welcome.

    Bobby,
    Very nice shot, I like the reflection of the house and boat in the water. I think if you tighten up the shot up to the edge of the reflection in the water, it would give the viewer more color to look at with the boats in the background. It looks to big with the birds in my opinion. I'm by no means a professional and these comments are my own. But hey thats only my opinion. Keep those shots comming.

    I'm with him. Lose the birds. It takes too long to view the whole thing (Don't ask me what that actually means, I have No idea.) and it takes a while to notice 'em anyway. I think more bang for your buck if you crop 'em out.

    Bobby, I agree about losing the birds. Crop up from the bottom enough to rid the birds and give you a horizontal frame. this almost looks like a toy R/C boat in a pond. Interesting scene with what looks to have much potential for lots of different shots. It does not appear to be as sharp as it should or could. Good scene

    Thanks for making my mind up for me and i have to agree it does look better.I think i was still wondering what they were standing on.This was taken late in the evening in Kinsale, Ireland.
