    Wharf and launch

    The colour is very nice, in my opinion, but here is the B&W version. Comments?

    I like the clouds and the overall concept, but have two minor niggles about the composition. FIrst and most obvious is the positioning of the launch which is crying out to be lined up with the end of the jetty; can you try a digital relocation? Second and more difficult to deal with is the white-topped structures at the right; they catch the eye and spoil the symmetry.

    +1 to Bill's comments. His observations echo my views as well. Those bollards with the white tops are very distracting. The whole balance of the image tilts to the right.

    you could select and darken the bollard caps, doing the conical parts a second time because they are brighter. However, there are a couple of things that make this tougher than it would be. There are some bright spots on the cones that become more evident when the cones are darkened. Also, there are some halos that aren't all that obvious except on the left-side bollards but that become apparent when you select the caps and darken them. These interfere with a clean selection. Perhaps if you did the selection before any other editing the selections might be cleaner.
