I love the crop, but I think the border needs to be thinner. It takes away from the picture

Good subject, but the image is just not capturing me and saying "Wow". I think it is the long distance between the man and the actual kite. Overall not a bad image though - 5

Interesting composition! The reflection of the kite mirroring it on the sand makes this image. Would have rated it a little higher if it had not been for the black border and the light. It looks a little harsh overall. Some adjustments in editing software could easily better this.

The shape of this image works well, as the visual hight appears much higher...

excellent choice of crop. Could use a little stronger coloring, but I like the shadows on the sand.

I like how you included the shadow in the photo too, that's a nice touch. I feel like everything is a bit close to the edge of the frame though...

I like the shadows of the kites in the lower corner...it's a nice touch and the reflection of the water and disappearing horizon is great. However, I'm not a fan of the shape of the picture itself. Perhaps if you had taken the bit off the top so that it would be like a mirror image would make the awkward shape more "worth it".
