I thinl this is a selective desaturation; which will mean disqualification. But if it's not...it's a really nice shot....great composition and background....8

Wow. The clarity of this picture is amazing. This is the type of sharpness I've been seeking, and the type that I had not yet found. I love the "selective blue," and the composition is superb. Terrifically great work.

This is a great scene! I'm not sure if that's the original color and saturation level on the boat, but I might have used a diffused blue here to be more fitting with the other elements in the scene - not aqua, but maybe a dry or dusty baby blue - steel blue but not too close to the grey backgrouund either. I think the contrast of the aqua seems a bit out of place, but overall a great shot. Love it.

I'd have liked to see the entire image have a blue cast to it. I love the boat though.
