Couldn't decide how to crop this one - the original image was too busy. While I like the idea of a horizontal crop from just above the land at the front to just above the boats, so as to capture just the boats, it looked too 'squished'. I also liked the red of the bridge with the red in the boats, so decided to leave the bridge in - but cropping out the sky made it look too squished again and too 'square'. In the end I took out the middle of the 'red' bit of the bridge to make it narrower and that gave a more horizontal crop that I think still keeps a reasonable amount of attention on the red boats.

It's nicely composed and a good capture. IMO the bridge is just distracting though :( I think if you cropped just below the yellow fence thing it would be better :)

I'm going to be annoying now...

You cropped out the moss :eek: That bit was great!

Oh well. Maybe I'm just too fussy :lol:
