Hello
Okay I redid the picture. How is this one? I wasn't sure with the top corner being empty? I also tried standing on the other side of the deck but the building behind is not nice and there are trees in the way. I also tried the tunnel version but the tables aren't exactly in a straight line and I couldn't move them some were frozen to the deck so once it warms up I will try the tunnel effect.
Thankyou

I think you can get creative with this scene, and you are in the right direction. I feel like it is headed into the leading lines composition ... I want it to lead my eyes down and to the left, but I keep looking to the right. Maybe try filling the entire shot witht hose tables, especially on the right side. Try not leaving any blank spot on your right. Maybe even try standing closer to the tables.

Another idea you could play with ... try laying on the groun in the middle of them and shoot up at the tables .. might get an interesting point of view. It may or may not be what you are looking for. But worth a shot right? :)

In short .. great shot, but my eyes keep wanting to go to the right first rather than being curious what the "line" leads me to.

I looked back at your first shot of these tables, and I have to tell you that composition wise, I like the first better. The subject fills more of the frame, and has a much better overall balanced to it. It also has a much better angle to it that increases the interest for me. Put both shots side by side so you can see both and you will notice the difference easier.
