POTW 6 August 2013 (400th DSLRUser POTW)

Congrads to Ozi for accepting the 400th selection of POTW in DSLRUsers land. :cheers:

I have chosen image #3 as POTW:

All these photos are pleasant to the eye, however I believe that #3 is far better compositionally. Numbers 1,2, and 4 each feature a stainless steel railing. I have nothing against these things and have no wish to rail against railings, but there is a distracting background competing with each shot of the railing. #3 is a different. The green tinge on the rocks, and the longish exposure on the water make for a great photo. Well done Cameron.

No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.

Thanks Ozi, and a big thanks to Gerry (for not posting anything). It's always nice to be on this side of POTW, and not picking it.

Nice one Cameron. I had a feeling that I missed some nice vistas that morning by sleeping in.

Indeed an excellent choice by Ozi of Cameron’s landscape still life that is beyond superlatives
