composition

Hi Philip

This appears to be a very good image IMO. As usual with these low res small size postings it is hard to inspect but never the less it looks good to me!

I have to agree about the framing though. While seamingly a pedantic comment the composition of an image contributes greately to the asthetics of an image. The middle ground is, too, well? put the object in the middle

However an off centre placement of an object can work very well if there is something else in the image to balance it. The rule of thirds is a bit over the top IMO

Here is my image of M20 and I think the balance worked well. I was trying to depict the Trifid as being on the end of a star trail from M21 ala Tinker Bell and fairy dust...?
