I played around with the composition of this a lot, tried many different crops, but in the end went for this wide view, cause even though including the lamposts, I prefered the lines of the overall composition more.

Greetings from the Critique Club
I orginally gave you a 7 for this photo.
I am really impressed with the color. I like the reflection off the water too.
The only glaring problem for me is that there isn't much detail with this photo. There's just so much to look at that my eyes wander around. I think I would have tried to get the camera lower. Instead of looking out over the boat maybe having it at eye level. Or leave the shot as is and crop the sky out just above the palm trees and a little off the left to the street light?
Reading your comments I see you probably tried what I would have prefered. Either way it is a nice shot. Good work.
Personally I don't care for the color of this at all. It is also way too dark to see anything but not dark enough to be a night shot for me. Sorry, but personally all I can give this is a 3. I gave it a three because it appears to be in good focus and has nice cropping and composition. Otherwise it would have been lower. PTL
