Well look at you with your 34th place... get down with your bad self! ;o) It's a great shot for the challenge, and probably should have placed higher... but not everyone has my perfect taste. LOL ;o)

nice job - i like the simplicity of this shot although i find the rope on the bottom left side of the pier a little distracting

Xtream framing! Way over powers your photo

Very Creative!

There seems to be too much going on in this picture, too many conflicting lines, so the eye is not drawn to anything. The multiple borders just make matters worse. Less is more :)

very geometric and well-framed. Perhaps a little too much in the mid-tones. Also the masts in the distance disrupt the image.

i like this very much although would have scored it much higher without the framing, i think that it takes away from the vanishing point and the overall effect

The border is a little excessive for my taste.

Great photo, but will be marked down by the border police :)

I like the b&w, lets it seem less busy. Dont like the framing though. Maybe on white line instead of 2. Just seems like too much to me.

Nice dock - good composition. Printing is effective with good whites, dark blacks and good tonal range. The border should be dumped into the sea.

i like the border.....and the picture...okay, both.

the border is a little overbearing, taking the focus off the image. still, good job of showing the anishing point. and nice colours. 7

Well done, good use of the boats to accentuate the vanishing point!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful, great use of leading lines.
 08/11/2004 05:00:34 PM
There are too many foresails and spars. which detract from the vanishing point. Is the vanishing point of the dock clearerr in color?
 08/11/2004 04:50:15 PM
Yes, Nice photo. This stands out. I am not a great fan of borders though

Nice use of converging lines and angles.

Good job!

Fits the challenge well. The use of duo-tone is nice. I think your frame is a bit to heavy--it takes up space that could be used by the more interesting elements of the photo
 08/11/2004 06:27:21 AM
Would be a wonderful postcard

great shapes and composition!

The only thing I can say about an awesome shot like this would be... PLEASE show me more (bigger) detail and less BORDER.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/11/2004 03:55:04 AM
and an extreme frame!

I'm a fan of big borders, and get PO'd when people complain about a simple thick black border, but this is even too much for me. It draws attention away from the photo ( which is VERY strong). This photo is fantastic, but would've been GREAT if you had just gone for the inner part of the border (black/skinny white/black).

You vanishing line is framed VERY well. Nice shot, I like the sepia tone.
