Good color and interesting balance.

i really like the way the boat intersects the color

Post actions
Tree shadow is a little distracting but otherwise great job. The lighting is reall nice.
Post actions
Woah! Very nice! what can I say 10
Post actions
Really nice image
Post actions
Commenting so I can keep track of my "Top 5" picks. Good luck in the challenge!
Post actions
Coming back for comment, I did like this image a lot even though there's a little unsightly noise but one of the best in the challenge...
Post actions
Lovely! Nice color and detail. A little less noise would be nice.
Post actions
great shot. one of the best i've seen so far. is this bear?
Post actions
I love the blues, the soft lighting, and how the lighting brings out details in the boat. 9
Post actions
So beautiful and pastoral
Post actions
The reflection is good. Something in the opposing corner would work.
Post actions
It's a good idea, however I would of reframed the shot... put the boat in the lower left third quadrant thus showing the trees (im assuming they are treees from the reflection) You picked a great time of day for the shot. I'm giving it a 6. I'd love to see you go back and recompose this!
Post actions
Beautiful texture, yet so simply done. 8
Post actions
I love this photo. The light on the boat is beautiful, and the way the water blends into the shaded area is very pleasing. Nice, rich colors, and it is SHARP!! Meets challenge exceedingly well.
Post actions
A big 10 for you, love this pic.....
Post actions
The water and boat look like a pastal drawing because of the ripples and such, very cool image!
Post actions
This is very nice. The lighting is lovely. I'd love to see it with a bit less negative space, too!
Post actions
wonderful colors, interestingly serene scene, (wish to top ripples weren't there??) as presented, one of my favorites this challenge
Post actions
Nice colors... I'm thinking you could have cropped a bit off the bottom and still captured the essence of the challenge.
Post actions
I am really drawn to this image. I think youve done a wonderful job capturing minimalism!
Post actions
Very good indeed! This is a very nice shot, still not breathtaking and lacks that "wow" factor for me personally but it would look good in a frame up on somebodys wall and I like it, gave it a 8. Good luck in the challenge.
Post actions
Awesome mood as a result of the late afternoon colors. 9
Post actions
like a similar pic, i like the way this is "framed" in the shot, especially as a director I can see how this works. Very nice!
Post actions
Post actions
Good composition, I like that you also included some reflection of the land also...8
Post actions
Great lighting on the skiff.

Post actions
