The Southampton Boatshow

Last week I was assigned to photograph the Southampton Boatshow. My client briefed me fairly liberally, all I had to do was to produce a cover, with the fold running across the middle of the image. No pressure then...

We spent a day walking around, and apart from covering some specifics that were relevant to the article, I was free to roam around and look for my double-pages. Since this is a busy tradeshow, with thousands of stalls and visitors, I was aiming for a fairly clean, uncluttered look. Would an abstract picture illustrate the event better than a general view from above? Do I need to concentrate on details rather than trying to get it all? I think the answers are self-evident, so enjoy the show!
