Thanks Mary, haha that would have been really odd if there were one red chair there too. :) I couldn't believe that whole line only had one red umbrella. On the other side the red & blue were all mixed up. Thanks again. #3264039

Brenda, I agree this image is good. It would have been great if you had gotten much closer to crop out most of the uninteresting sky and bring the main points of interest (umbrellas) up close.

You might try a crop in PS to see what I visualize.

Thanks John, do you mean more like this? #3580643

Brenda, I apoligize for not replying sooner, but have been pretty bust. Answer--Yes, that's more like it.

Allow me to suggest another crop for this image. I think, and it's just my opinion, this puts a little mystery into the image. The line of blue umbrellas might go on forever....

Brenda, actually. I have been pretty busy, although at times, I feel pretty bust-ed. I hope you forgive my liberty in suggesting another way to crop.

John,

No forgiveness needed, I'm perfectly fine with it and it does make it look cool and add mystery! Thanks for the other set of eyes. :) I'm always open to input & constructive help so I appreciate you looking, commententing AND taking the time to show me your idea. I'll have to take a look at some of my other images and try different cropping on them. I had never thought of the "endless blue" look.

Have a great evening John! And thanks again. Hope things slow down enough for you to relax some. :)
