Actually I really like this one Diane. The compositional "rules" are only for guidance and I often ignore them if I like the results. That's what counts.

Further to what Keith said, I sometimes compose like this myself -- a division in the middle between two very different scenes. Actually, rdhinmn pointed that out to me; I didn't plan to do it. Well, regardless of what I do, this is a very impressive shot, with the sharp division etc.

Iy's part of an excellent series, too.

My only rule of composition is to avoid using the Rule of Thirds.

Haha - well thanks very much, glad it serves some purpose! Never thought of doing what you describe...on purpose!

Ah, still active! A wonderful place! Reminds me of Lake Tahoe, where I was once in the 80s.

Hi, poly! Active when I can get out and around. It does resemble Tahoe - the poor people's version. Nice to see you here!

Thanks a lot!
Well, I am now retired too and no longer have so much time for Ipernity! ;-D.
But I try to upload a few pictures from time to time. Of course i'm on the road a lot more now; so there would be enough subjects :-)
