This is a revised version as per Dennis Flanagan's suggestion. I believe it works. What do others think? thanks Dennis #1067167

I like this. Now my eye follows the line of the boat to see it's destination. #7026670

When I compare the two, the first one to me looks like is is not moving, possibly broken down. This one conveys movement to me. Both shots have their merits depending on what you want to depict. #7026682

I agree Dennis. I think this is an example of what one really knows conflicting with what looks better. Although in this cropped image there is no land or buildings in sight, my mind knows that I was standing on the west quay at Mevagissey and this guy is heading in the wrong direction to get to the North quay where he ties up his boat.
But thanks again as this is something I now will have in the "composing part of my brain".
I only wish there were more critiques that were this helpful. #7027876
