Hobart, Tasmania - cloudy of paradise

On our weekend in Hobart in Tasmania a week ago, we were lucky enough to get some gorgeous cloud-filled skies. I know we're supposed to have that thing called the "rule of thirds" but with clouds and reflections like this, I kept wanting to ignore it. As they say, there is always an exception to the rule, I think these all qualify.

A beautiful photograph is beautiful because of it's composition, color and 'eye candy effect'

Rules of thirds could ruin some photos.

Just a thought

You're right ... rules were made to be broken.

Andrew: whenever I see a post from you, I know I'm going to be in for a treat. Second to taking/making images, I enjoy looking at fine images. No disappointment here. Number three is exquisite, with beautiful light. Compositionally, I might like to see more of what's on the left-- but then maybe it's something unattractive or detracting from the view. Anyway, kudos on another fine set.

When I look at photo 4, I try to visualize it with Photo 3's sunrise, which would make it a very nice photo.

I wasn't able to locate a map showing Huon River, Franklin, or Franklin.

LRF, thanks for the kind words. Regarding number three, just to the left was a horrible big ugly locked gate restricting access to part of the jetty, that's why it is composed as it is.

Gaylord, you're right would be a great place for a sunrise/sunset. Not there at the right time of day unfortunately, maybe next time?

If you click the link below, it'll take you to the image on Flickr where you'll see the map of where it is.
