    Sure, the verticals are a very dominant element here.

    Yes. I noticed that. I do like the straight-line theme in the picture which I think you were emphasizing. I don't think I could find so many straight lines in the home where we live which makes the picture unusual. We have plants all over the place along with a cat.

    A pier in Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands. I really enjoy the surreal look of long exposure.

    Usually these beautiful landscapes convey a feeling of loneliness to me. I live in a densely populated city and when I look at this wood, that seems unhabited, I ask where are all the people of Finnland.

    Yes. It reminds me of a gigantic endless swimming pool.

    I can almost see where the pot of gold should be in that rainbow.

    Lovely picture, the pier looks suspended over the water, while the horizon is hazy, altogether very hazy, even the closer part of the pier is hazy.

    A beautiful image. The rainbow lits the beautiful but solitary landscape, like a blessing of nature or of another dimension if one believes in it.

    It adds a nice touch when a rainbow ends close to the house, especially if the house is yours.

    That post seems to have enlarged the pixels and made it much blurrier than my S7 camera took it. I'll try a smaller version:

    It looks like there's fog blurring the trees. Shouldn't the trees in the background be greener than they are?
