    Tom,
    I love this one. It screams Irish coast and Irish innovation. Those look like recycled boat prows. How smart someone was once upon a time. The shapes, contrast composition textures and alignment are all working hand in hand on this one. A beauty!

    Re: Self Storage By The Sea

    Very nice! My eye wanders from right to left and it is happy. when it wanders from left to right I am left feeling like there should be more on the right side - facing out to sea. Otherwise, tones and contrast and textures - just really great!

    Really sweet shot Tom. I really like the perspective of this shot. The tones and contrast is great as well. Very innovative those englishmen. I really like the shape of the cabins here, IMO they make the shot. Good job.

    Re: Self Storage By The Sea

    I would really like to say a big thank you to all who responded in such a positive way to this photograph. I have always been in two minds about it and have sat on it for a long time just wondering if the composition itself was interesting enough, apart from any technical stuff. I am ever so pleased about it now.
