Thanks. It was tough to get the horizon. I was just walking around the ferry shooting.
Here is another photo to keep it going.

marsvolta -- I like the humor in this image. Thank you for posting it - I needed something to lighten my day.
Chappers -- I like this picture of the swans better. The version that is cropped to just the two on the lower right was difficult to understand (it looked like they were in a bubble bath). This one shows a very interesting rage of textures.

Here are 2 more. These blades come from an old sugar mill on Maui. These were part of the machinery that broke and chopped the cut sugar cane.

platypus63 -- very cool. Great perspective. Images like this are hard to get right, and you have it well. I think this would be even better if you "cleaned it up a little." I would rotate this clockwise just a bit so that the window is parallel to the edge of the image, and I would crop out some of the left side to make the image more symmetrical.
deep diver - both great shots but the second one is beautiful it reminds me of a Seurat painting. Great stuff - the only distraction is the little bit of green at the top on the left.
dcaero - its interesting - I like this type of decay picture

Ah, I've been waiting to share this image!
This was shot back in July as part of my 365 Days (Photo-of-the-Day) project and as part of a "minimalist photography" project on another site.
I really like this. Excellent use of color and composition. Really intriguing.
Don't worry the boat is still in port waiting to depart. Beach shot - very nice and as summer ended yesterday in my part of the world - I feel a bit sad.
Big building - I never thought about any close-up detail of dirt and weathering - interesting shot that gave me a new impression of an iconic building.
Hi all.. I love these challenges.
Here's two... I hope I've understood the theme correctly...

Here's an edge of the Sydney Opera House
Have I missed the boat on this one?
I like the flow of line in this image. I really like the Sydney Opera House Steps in your Flicker feed.
By the way, all themes in this thread are open to interpretation by the individual with the camera (you). It frees your creativity and allows you to see things from different aspects depending on your interpretation.

Great shot, just wish it were an original iPhone, to really drive the theme home
I never noticed that before. I agree, now that I know it's there. I'll have to see if I can take it out without making it look manipulated. I think that cropping any more would hurt the balance in the image.
platypus63 -- If you are new and consistently shooting images like this, then you have a great eye. Post some more of your work.

Oh, well, I could do that too.....
I've got all of them. I waited in line on Launch Day for the first iPhone, waited in line last year for the 3G, and this year bought the 3G S but didn't wait in line for it, although I went over to the store on Launch Day...... Waited a few days and THEN bought it, figuring that by then the initial commotion would've calmed down with regard to activating, etc. I couldn't bear to part with any of my iPhones, so now the first-gen iPhone and last year's 3G iPhone are wonderful backups for my current one. Hm.....thanks for the idea! Maybe tomorrow I'll play around with my original iPhone and see how I can show it off, too!
Oh, and thanks for the compliment on this shot!
ClixPix -- There is another interpretation of the theme in that: cutting edge technology
Right you are!!!
The original iPhone still has a certain style, a certain cachet, that cannot be echoed in the following generations. It's that wonderful back on it, that wonderful, substantial feel in the hand....
Oh, boy, I'm going to have fun tomorrow!
