Why was this photo deleted? Are bow/stern shots not allowed?

Any clarification would be appreciated.

Hello Marek

Bow and stern shots are acceptable, but only if they show the vessel from the waterline to the top of the superstructure.
See Item 6 at

I hope that this clarifies the reason for deletion.  We look forward to more of your fine shots from  Vancouver and your travels.

Ah....got it. Not wanting to stir up trouble or be a smart alec, but why only from the water line up? What's the reasoning for not allowing some of that red paint in the shot? Genuine question.

Thank you,
Marek

OK Marek - by waterline we mean where the actual water is, not the line of paint colour
