    This is a shot of a life raft off the Boblo Boat "St. Clair" History

    I enjoy this shot! How holes give a sense of order to an otherwise chaotic texture!

    Your thoughts are very much appreciated!

    I do enjoy the abstractness of this. This is the type of stuff I enjoy the most. I think I would have tried this shot straight on, but its jmo. Not really worth much when it comes to stuff like this. Good job here. Nice to see abstract work like this.

    I like this abstract!
    To make it a bit punchier I might try bumping up the saturation and contrast a bit. Hope that helps - Marko

    I'd have to get picky to give this critique I think. The best I can really see (the only thing that really came to mind) is that almost hidden hole doesn't work totally for me. I'd have had it as close to half visible or totally visible I think.

    I would have arranged the holes so they allign with the picture frame. They are just to random now to truely bring order into the chaos for me...
    Just a thought.

    Thanks everyone!

    bumping up the saturation and contrast a bit
    I think that is the biggest problem I have...to much to little?...that is the question?

    Roger that.....I've actually been working on that!

    arranged the holes so they allign with the picture frame.
    Good point! I since have been taking multiple angles while shooting!
