I had this rated a 5. A bit on the lower side of the scale.
I think the thing that attracts me to a photo is ..do I want to see more? Sometimes a good photo gives up everything it has on first glance. A good first glance but nothing more interesting.
I like the color and the play of the reflection on the water but I still came away feeling like it was a well colored snapshot....it just didnt' draw me in. Its a sihouette of a swan on the water with some nice color. But there is nothing more for me to be interested in.
Technically I cannot fault you.
Obviously lots of others felt different so overall people thought well of this photo!
Lovely Silhouette here and the reflection and water ripples are beautiful.
The colour too is lovely and gives a nice peacful mood to the image.
If I were to nitpick (and it is nitpicking) I am not overly keen on the square crop and think a little more space to the left of the subject and a little more of the wake to the right would have worked better for me (see, told you it was nitpicking).
Really nice work though, well done and good luck! 7/10
