    I like this one very much, and I can understand the title (I think!).

    Cheers.

    This is your best one so far but I think you need to do two things:
    Thing 1 - slice a skemeter or so off the bottom, to make the black triangle bottom right same dimensions as the one, top left.
    Thing 2 - try viewing it turned 90 degrees, it's an entirely different image and in my opinion works a magnitude better (it becomes a bit of an optical illusion as well).

    Thanks Philip. Don't worry too much about my titles, I don't put much effort into them. They are not necessarily intended as a description of the image.

    Thanks Jack for picking up that little triangle, that's definitely an oversight on my part.

    I know what you mean about the optical illusion and that is what I see now. I know exactly what the subject is but when I tilted it the background/ middle ground seemed to take over and now it looks to me like they sitting on raised strips and the white shutter is in the background. So maybe it has something to do with how we first see the image and then watch the change when tilted. Or maybe it's just my wonky eyesight.

    I like that. It's well seen and a clever composition. I like the way you have put that edge on a diagonal third.
