can i be harsh :?

that whole thing in the foreground just ruins the whole shot.
as it is, it looks like a record shot. without it would be a nice seascape.

Gerard, the location looks the goods. Perhaps you could go back and try a couple of different angles and compositions.
Cropping may improve this shot but I think the location may have more to offer you. I think it is worth making another visit. Tell everyone where this is and you may end up with visitors.
Cheers, Mick :) :) :)

Mick,
This was taken in Cancale, France, about 2 weeks ago. I'll go back in about 18 months :D . I have more in this gallery
http://www.pbase.com/glamy/france_2006&page=all. I think some are really better :oops: .
Cheers,
Gerard

Ahhh Gerard. I love to travel and this has brought back a few memories. Unfortunately my bank balance can't keep up with my dreams. Many years ago I travelled through some parts of France - I have all the piccies somewhere - even have Pont du Gard on the wall.

My picks of your shots in the gallery would be Solidor-b, Cale-de-Cancale, Coleurs-de-Ilsere and Parc-et-bouchots. Being on a cropping run maybe I would look at cropping the foreground out of the first and last of those (to try to bring them out a bit more) but you should definately have them hanging on the wall.
Well done!! Cheers, Mick :) :) :)
