Lunch With a View

Today two friends of mine took me out for lunch. I think they thought David needed some respite and I had a lovely couple of hours on the floating restaurant at Soldiers Point

One of the friends, Judith, has just returned from spending 3 months in Nevada visiting her daughter. She is one of our regular lunch girls but as I didn't get to the lunch last week it was lovely to catch up on all her news.

This was the view from the restaurant.

Thanks for your lovely comments on my photos over the last week, sorry I haven't replied individually but I am rather limited with computer time at the moment. I do read all your comments and will reply when I get chance.

It is a very cloudy but rather warm day today and I thought we may get rain, but none has materialized so far. I think it will rain later this afternoon though. The garden desperately needs it.

The reflections are appealing but rather lost in the size of your crop. I think if it were mine (and I know it is not!) I would crop the three boats on the right into a square. That would make them bigger in the frame and attract the viewers attention. I hope you don't mind me commenting?

[Babs]

@marshwader Of course I don't mind you critiquing my photo Madeleine and although I agree cropping the three boats in the picture into a square would make them bigger in the frame that wasn't the aim of my photo. I did think of that myself but when I cropped them it made the scene look rather flat.

I wanted to take a photo of the whole view from the floating restaurant, not just of the boats and that I think I have achieved.

Thanks for your opinion anyway

Lovely view- I'm glad to see you're able to get out and about with your friends- that helps with the healing too!
