 I like how the longer exposure enhances the three-dimensionally of the clouds, also how the skiff looks like it's just resting on the surface of the water.

I didn't see a B52 bomber, but now I do!. I missed dealing with vertical banding in my noise reduction steps and didn't notice it until after it rolled in.

I really liked the pterodactyl like (?) wings of the skiff; a boat taking shape in a dream.

The composition and motion are nice, but it looks maybe overly noise-reduced or something.

The symmetrical dance of the skiff is a nice feature. Love the simplicity and clean lines of the horizon. Murky and moody.
