In Rome, I found this beach where each resort had its own colorful umbrellas. I had a lot of shots with more background, but I found those distracting, and the horizon was not horizontal in those. This piece has more than one or two sets of parallel lines, and I think it's a pretty shot.
All I did was crop the bottom and some of the unneeded water in the background.

I like this very much, although I think one more umbrella down in the bottom left-hand corner would have covered up a bit of untidiness. Although that spot gives an identity to the picture.
