Boats available for daily excursions along the Lachine canal. Bright sunny day was perfect for this shot.
Levels, contrast, and slight Saturation adjustements in PS. Neatimage for tidyness then PS for resize and slight crop.
I chose this picture over others as I found the crop and positioning of the boats and water laid itself out well for a magazine cover. Room for the title on top and some text on the side, all without taking away from the main subjects.

I like your composition here quite a bit, and I love the reflection of the three boats in the water. I think this would make a very nice magazine cover, it's very well done and has room at the top for type. The brown in the upper right hand corner is kind of bothersome, I wonder what that is? The bottom right hand corner looks a little blown out but it's not too bad. Overall a pretty nice photo -8-
Color is crisp and you seem to be ok with composition. I do however think that the Title, subject matter, and angle of shot are just not where they could be. Seems to be a static of some sort that I can not pin down. Your Depth is amazing though.
The reflections in the water are so sharp and crisp that this almost looks fake. VERY nice shot. The boat on the lower right ruins it just a little bit but not enough to bring the score down.
I really like the image, but in my opinion it would be even better without the nose of the 4th boat in the picture. It is to far away from the rest and sitting at a different angle... to me it's a little distracting. The colors are very nice and the composition on the three grouped boats is very good. :)
This is so clean and simple. The water and rippled reflections are lovely. Fits the challenge well, although I would have left a bit more at the top for the title.
I particularly like the bit of boat in the lower right corner - it really completes the composition. Nit-picking on the blown-out whites, however. Seems just a touch hot to me.
