My father in law called today. He's coming up this way again on his
annual "rail" vacation, so I took a look at some of the photos I took
when he and his wife were last here. The photos reminded me of the fun
we had on that trip. That's why I took them.

I suppose I could have made the water blue, the skies bluer, the trees
greener, et cetera, but...my mind would have told me "that's not the way
it was."

I think I can understand why you didn't like my photos. I would not
have bothered to take the first two from those angle, and on the 3rd
photo, I would have come back when the light was much lower in the sky.
You talk about composing in the camera, I can't figure out why you
left the grass in at the bottom of the photo, I think your subject was
the boats. They are nice photos for you to look at to remember your
trip, but trust me on this, I don't think anyone else would want to look
a t them.
