Process of Elimination

These two photographs are my submission for Kat's Exploring with a Camera: Process of Elimination post.

This is the original photograph with lots of busyness in the background which detracted from the colourful boats and kept dragging the eye into the top left-hand corner. It was badly in need of cropping.

This is the finished photograph, cropped so that the distraction is removed and with the shadows slightly lightened to give more definition to the movement in the sea.

POT POURRI

I tried very hard to make this square for Kat but couldn't crop it any more or I'd lose some of the subject. Oh well - will try harder!  Sorry Kat:-)
