this picture any good ?

Seems that some people think so, as I have won a competition !
Signed copies available for vast sums of money....

Critical opinion invited please !
However, I am unlikely to be able to respond for just over a week..

That picture is very good indeed.

(and might start a new "sky blue realism" movement on pink fish, replacing the arty old guard with their b&w out of focus stuff - I reckon in 2009 I should invest in sideshowbob prints and houses as both will lower in value in the short term, but only ssb due to the new "sky blue realism" movement. Colour is the new monochrome. Steak n Chips the new sun dried fruit. David Davis the new Durran Durran.)

Critical opinion?

1) I'd prefer the colours a bit more saturated.

2) I don't know if the parasols make the picture or detract from it. For it to be 10 out of 10 I think they should be bigger, brighter and slightly to the right. But every photographer you speak to will say 'I wouldn't have done it like that'.

3) It's a very good picture.

4) It won a competition. You have bragging rights.
