Only thing that bugs me is the line that isn't quite exactly straight and just the general softness of the image.

If she says who, then she gets the blame...

p.s. Wendell, looks like the long pier at Townsville where the tourists go fishing and the cruise ships pull up for 1 dayers

i like the composition with the pier just off-centre. not sure about the softness of it though, wondering whether it's camera shake when you triggered the shutter.

It's that thing that got built after I left! BTW, Townsville sucks, the end.

:lol:

It looks blurry to me and a bit uninspiring.

Hehe thanks for comments, the photo originally comes from a slide, so the blur/softness comes from the scanning process, plus editing the pixels 3 billion times hehehehe ... original is quite clear, used a tripod and all that jazz. As for who it was, he knows who he is LOL

Welcome to the fray :)

Like the symmetry and balance of the image and the colors seem almost like animation for some reason??? :? I find the colors or tones really intriguing...

With my pier fetish I had to have a sticky :)

If the view point was higher up, it would make the photo better.

And don't mind me, I used to live in Townsville, that's all. :P
