I removed the "scalped" boat on the right, to help give the main star a little more prominence in the shot. I also lost the empty space at the bottom of the frame to allow the dreaded RoT (Rule of Thirds) to make itself known. I also debated reducing the overall "height" of the image by taking a little more off the bottom to put the shoreline in the upper line of the RoT, but to please some who feel "breaking the rules" is part of the game... I left it as I did. (mostly becuase the real horizon of the picture WOULD be slightly lower than the location of the shoreline (well, that was MY justification for breaking the rules!
