Good lessons for all we 'squares' in this, among which is compose carefully, thoughtfully, properly. And then the picture goes "yes!" and you both sigh with delight.
Nice contrast between the texture of the grass and the texture of the water. Also, the contrast between the spray of the grass and the parallel lines of the waves and the horizon.
Like Robert, I appreciate the balance here. The first thing I notice is the centered spray of the grass in the foreground. Then the paddler in the center just above it. It takes the square crop to draw our attention to these elements, I think, and that is a good thing.
Rather a lovely balance to this one. It's interesting how the energy of the relatively dormant foreground greatly exceeds the energy of the presumably much more kinetic sea :-)
