    The Meeting of the Waters by cype_applejuice, on Flickr

    Hi Folks, just wondering if anyone would care to give some criticism / feedback on this pic, please be as harsh / discriminating as you want (I lost my soul as a graphic designer so nothing can hurt me!!) :P

    The quay side leads the eye into the picture and the heavy dark clouds holds the eye in the middle ground. But unfortunately there is nothing there of any interest except the reflection of the sky. I think there was an opportunity to make the boat more a part of your photo, there is some nice lighting on it but as it is it’s serving little or no purpose.
    I think the picture could be improved by cropping out half the depth of the clouds, the different elements will come together to form a more satisfying whole.

    Cheers Tex, I felt the same way too, I just wish I had more room on the long edges, but to my right were two young german tourists passionately kissing, and to my left were a family of bicyclists gawping at my wife and I taking photos! :P I suppose more tilt would have been appropriate, rather than cropping, as if I crop now, and try to keep proportion I’m losing it and running the boat too close to the trim, its a pity I didn’t think of tilting the tripod more on the day. Much appreciate the crit!
