thanks Rod, I guess I'm subconsciously trying now to incorporate that tension you're always looking for :)

The framing here is just right for me & creates interest & tension. The boat we see less of shows the whole roof & little of the back end, the middle boat shows us a bit more of the back end & less roof. The front boat completes the picy by showing us bugger all of the roof but all of the back end.
I bet you didn't realise the shot was this good a b.c.:-)

thanks Mary Anne, CJ, Markjay and Brent. I had a tough time getting a composition I liked here without too much distracting stuff in the background, so I ended up with this framing and unfortunately the rear boat is not more in view. These are water taxis - for $2.50 you can take them to various spots around the harbour here in Vancouver - quite a nice ride and some nice views of the city, too. thanks again - b.c.

Nice colorful image B.C. They do look kinda' like toy boats.

I like the image, the colors and I think (*) if the front end of the rear boat were more prominent, it would further solidify the repeating elements of the boats and "three".
Kind of funny, the boats look like little toys to me, I've never seen anything like them before... in Florida :-)

Really? is it that obvious? well, this "three" thing is not as easy as I first expected... need some other ideas...
anyhow, thanks Rod & Tom :)

I bet Tom will say "I knew this was yours from the thumbnail" I hate that saying otherwise I would have said it:-) Nice shot for the challenge mate:-)
