Really good photo! Looks like something I would see on a calendar. But, for the challenge, I think there is too much of the landscape, taking away from the dock. Also, it is hard for me to tell whether the dock is steel or wood.
Although I like the bridge a lot, I feel that the sky and balancing water are too bland given these particular weather conditions. Reshooting on a different day would result in a more effective shot. This time, I'd have gone for a longer, narrower crop. 5
This is beautiful. Love the textures! Usually people would look at this as an eyesore and move around it to get the image. This is great. Crop, composition, DOF, POV all work for me. 8 - will check back later on a CRT for better evaluation. On a crt still looks great. On second pass - 9. Could use just a hair of brightness/contrast. Good luck in the challenge!
