I like the refection of the sun and the patterns in the water, and I was not really concern that you stole Matt's style with the horizon.

Posted: Fri Sep 08, 2017 8:55 pmWhilst I'm not a fan of the image as it stands I am fascinated by the complex lines in the composition. The horizon, reflections and water trail divide the image space up into what is almost perfect, (for me), balance of tension. It may well be a classic example of the dominance of lines in the image space and I certainly would have used this image as a training aid in the teaching of lines as an element of composition.
There is always a reason why we press the shutter button.

Posted: Sat Sep 09, 2017 6:24 pmThank you Matt. I personally prefer the first version but I agree with Tony that the horizon was not straight.
Tony, thank you for your comment. I had no realised the horizon was not totally straight; likewise I had not realised either that you could rotate the canvas by a fraction. In the original photo, the horizon was even more tilted so 3 CCW seemed alright but 4 CCW was overdone.
