Two things jump out at me.
1) It's not a stream so it's already starting to seem like a shoehorn.
2) Composition. It's very strange. On one hand you have the tree line sloping downward, but the water itself appears to be flowing upward from right to left, settling in the center. I'm not sure what the thinking was here, but I don't get a sense of the down stream effect at all. As a result I'm left with the notion that perhaps you failed at trying to get the shot you really wanted and had to settle for this instead. Now technically this probably shouldn't matter, but I do think voters in general let these sorts of feelings affect their vote. I can say without hesitation that it does for me. If I get the sense that the photographer had to settle for something less than ideal then it affects my vote. I didn't vote in this challenge but I'm guessing had I did I probably would have given it a 6 (mostly due to the exposure/processing). |
