In Rome, I found this beach where each resort had its own colorful umbrellas. I had a lot of shots with more background, but I found those distracting, and the horizon was not horizontal in those. This piece has more than one or two sets of parallel lines, and I think it's a pretty shot.
All I did was crop the bottom and some of the unneeded water in the background.

I like this very much, although I think one more umbrella down in the bottom left-hand corner would have covered up a bit of untidiness. Although that spot gives an identity to the picture.

More croping could have made this a good image, that is cut out almost everything else than the umbrellas.

Very neat. Love the colors of pink and yellow against the blue water. The bottom is a bit busy and distracts the eye-needed a tighter crop.

Nice idea, I only wish it were a sea of umbrellas, where you couldn't see underneath or beyond. Maybe some cropping would work.
