Beautiful blues, and well composed. I wonder how it would look if you'd shot from farther to the right so that the railing was straight, but this works too.
Wow, I can't say for sure, but based on my own work with water, the colors here look a little too saturated (blue -- but maybe they really are that blue) and the picture overall is definitely very light. I'm sure you did it to bring out all the blue, and perhaps it's a monitor calibration problem, but I think stepping it down a notch or two would have been fine. If possible, getting the subjects out of the shadow of the funnel (?) might have helped as well.
the matching blues are interesting - they almost look artificial. I like how the one darker-clothed kid is in the center, while the outside two seem to be dressed identically, as it gives the picture an interesting symmentry. I think maybe the blue is oversaturated though.
It could do better with higher contrast. It is a tad flat this way. Boosting up the colours would also help bring out those blues. Try it on your own time and see the difference it can make.
The image is a bit too blue for me. It's interesting that the clothes of the people match the deck and water, but it leaves it without much color depth to me.
Turn 'em around, let's see their faces (or at least not their b*tts). Right sailor overly bright compared to left sailor (in the same suit, I am assuming), try to balance more evenly. Centering the subjects wouldn't hurt, did the boat sway starboard? Photo 9 Creativity 6 People 9 total 8
This is an interesting photo.. Let me take a moment to comment on one of *my* own opinions... I try, at all costs, to avoid photographing people from the back. When 'people' or a 'person' is the subject of my photo, I want to capture faces and possibly emotions as well.
Any dolphins in that wake? I like how the hats mirror the deck, and the posture of the little sailor really implies the acceleration of the craft. It looks like it was a fun journey!
