    Tom the only thing that bothers me is the out of focus pole far left, the distant one. Two poles on that side kind of unbalances the shot. I know it is a holga think but I would inclined to clone it. Maybe crop some from the top as well. I think the tones are really nice and the lower part of the image carries the shot.

    Tom, I'm intrigued and impressed by your ventures into the Holga world, lol. I love the analog gritty feel of this and the dreamy quality that the Holga brings here. My only gripe is with your composition in centering the horizon especially since the main score board is pretty much lined up with the horizon line as well cutting the image in half. more foreground and less sky would have worked a bit better i think. You have me thinking about going analog
    Hats off to you

    Greg and Gary.
    Thanks so much for your time. I take on board your comments. I like this shot very much myself but it can be improved in line with your critiques..
