It pulled mje right in to the many times that I have stood on a seawall looking at such a scene. Beyond that there is really not very much going on in this picture. No central element to capture my interest. It really needs something like a person (close up) in the scene. Having said that, my wish would be that you settle down on a genre. In the past PAWs you have bounced from landscape, animals, portraits, kids (I think) and street photography, sometimes color, sometimes b&w. Maybe pick your best genre and concentrate on that. sl - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
