Three boats

We are currently holidaying in the North West of Victoria. I liked the simplicity of the scene. C&C welcome.

Nice image; some more space at the top would make it more appealing? just a thought

I completely agree with Nandakumar. I love the colours and the fact that there are three boats, but need a tad more breathing room at the top. Also, I might consider cloning out the orange bouy.

Ole, I agree with Nadakumar and Susan J,,,, Really nice image but, I wasn't sure what bothered me about it until they pointed their fingers at it.

If you don't have the space at the top and are working with Photoshop, Content aware fill would help. I also think that you could use the clone tool to fill in and remove the orange buoy!

Nicely seen and captured. I also like the simplicity and colors. Very appealing to the eye. I agree with others that a bit more space would likely be an improvement.

Great colors! Agreed with all of the above. Actually, removing the orange float is more important to me than adding space to the top.

Yes.

I'm in with all the others as well re extra space and the orange bouy and I have a question.
Where in NW Victoria was this shot taken? I didn't think the Murray was so clear??

Small bit cramped, but shur, we can't be perfect very time. It's a great effort and I do like it.

Graham, the picture was taken in Port fairy. Could retire here.

I agree that the picture may be cramped, i liked it that way because of the colours. The orange 'thing' is a no no I see that now. Here is my edited version. Please excuse my cloning.

Look very closely, Ole, in the area where the orange float used to be. The reflection of that float is still displayed, though in a slightly different area of the water. I realize that you asked us to excuse your cloning, but it's imperative that you get rid of that reflection. That's because it doesn't stand up to the high quality of the rest of your image.

Mike, you are a hard taskmaster. I hope this version is better, to me it's a lot better.

Way to go, Ole! In this latest version, we would never have known the float was there if we hadn't seen the earlier versions.
