On the River

I'm not sure I agree with the previous commenter, but I guess its a matter of personal taste too. I think fogging the background would ruin the subtle colors, which I think make this photo so good. Your pictures of Cambridge are just breaking my heart! I went through Cambridge back in 1990 and I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Great work.

If you would crop just a bit off the top -- down to the top of the willow on the right, perhaps -- the lightness at the top of the picture (and the tendency to pull the eye toward it) would be eliminated. Nevertheless, a fine shot.

I like the depth of the shot

A lot of comments here .. good ideas . here is mine .. crop off the left side .. go just short of the boat.. putting the boat in the left bottom and the tree in the center top .. you will still have some of the bridge and all of the green bank .. Just an idea !!!!

Scott,

 

I like your rendition too.

 

Thanks for taking the time to show me a different crop. Well done!

I agree with Ben's suggestion and his assessment I like it too.
