your horizon is sloping a little bit ot the left, and i think a less central placement of the pier and bench (probably bottom left or right) to follow the rule of thirds would've created a little more interest, too. i like the sunbeams, they are great. -- gr8photos (4)
Interesting photo.. the sun is a bit bright when you are shooting directly into it :) I think this shot would have much more impact if the dock was not located bullseye center in the image... see 'rule of thirds' for a possible improvement in this image :) I know that rules are not really rules, but they are here for a reason. They offer guidelines that are often helpful. IMHO, the rule of thirds would be very helpful here :) = 6 - jmsetzler

Sorry it reminded me of a show, and its late (i get odd when its late).. I love the shot. It's something out of a tv show.. so to me it seems pretty professional looking. It's soft and the glisten on the water is great. Good job - 8!
Beautiful! Another great shot of the sun in this challenge. I can't seem to photograph anywhere near it. The reflection, the rays, the dark trees in the back all add to a great shot!
What a wonderful looking place of _calm_!! Keep this place a secret. Your photo is nice also, but a bit OOF and the sun a bit too over exposed on the water. I think a tripod would of helped you here and UV lens. Over all I like this very much and the composition. Kee
