I may be entering a show with a photo, because I can. Thing is, I can't decide.
The themes are kind of stupid, and I've run out of time really. There is one theme though, Red, which some photos I took yesterday do fit. Question is, which?
First is just normal, then I had a play with some B&W.
1. (normal)

2. (red sail)

3. (colour boat)

4. (+ reflection)

Then I thought of these for the "anything else" category, although I'd like to do a theme as there must be a reason for it...

I have to decide by tomorrow evening-ish, so which would you pick?
Cheers

Id go with normal as the brightness of the blue is more of a contrast for the red.

Either the normal photo or the red reflection. Leaving the reflection coloured is a nice touch.

It's a toss-up between the original and red reflection for me, not sure which way i'd go.

Red, with reflection. Makes the colour more intense.

Original pic is my fav, as soon as you lose the great blue of the water it just looks so cold and wintery? who wants that image in there heads?
The Bee is nice, the swan does nothing for me, like it's been taken at totally the wrong time or something!

I guess it's different for others, as I took it, so I can still see the brightness of the sun and all the reflections of the sun whether it's black and white or not. Can't say I saw it as wintry...

Again, as I took it, I guess it's different to me. I like it, I like the reflections. It may make sense as part of a "set". I'll upload the others.

Normal and the Bee get my vote, As said the the normal boat pic looks more vibrant.

Cheers guys . Well the original and the bee have been entered, so I'll find out tomorrow! Annoying thing is that I wasn't told that there is an "intricate detail" category, in which I would have entered a close up butterfly one.

I'm not sure if you wish to disclose, since you are entering the competition. But if you don't mind me asking, what competition is this you are entering?

It's not a competition as such... It's just part of a village show. Everyone here is entering something, like Katie is entering her Swiss roll . This is the only thing I can sort of do!
