A Different Point Of View

Sullivan's Pond in downtown Dartmouth is a very popular spot for having radio controlled sailboat races. Some people just have a more
interesting way of viewing these races.

In The background are a few of controllers as they move along with their sailboats.

The sailboats just rounded the buoy for the next lap.

I especially like the 2nd image in the comment with the little sailboats... one can almost create the illusion of scale by cropping out the vehicle in the upper background. All the images create the sense of summer as it rushes to its conclusion this coming Saturday.

Nice calm endeavor, but a bit like watching paint dry compared to flying
drone races. :D

I’ll comment on #3. There’s too much going on such as the car in the distance. A crop
suggestion to get it out of the literal view: Crop from the top to get rid of the rock
structure. That will take the top of the frame into some of the sails. That’s OK. Bottom
of the frame at least half and some on the left. Just boats and water. Take it a step
further and a tight crop around the 7 clustered in the middle. Kind of identifiable
abstract.

Thanks for all the comments. I guess I should have paid more attention to photos 2 & 3 since they drew all the comments. It's funny how
things turn out. My main objective was the lady doing a head stand and it just happened to be in an area where there were sailboat
races taking place. I only posted the other photos to help with my opening comments to tell a story showing what she could be looking
at...or not. BTW, may thanks for the excellent tips, I'm always appreciative for all the help I can get.
