Taken yesterday in Red Wing, marina on the Mississippi. Each file processed with Neat IMage, adjustment layers, and re-sized. Hardest part was geting images to fit into the 720 max dimension.

I didn't vote in this challenge so this is the first look I've had at your image. My first impression is that all three pictures look very nice but the combination of the three doesn't quite look balanced. Reading through the comments you received, many of the voters agreed. This was a good solid entry into this challenge and your score reflects it. I've always like waterfront images and all three of these are nicely captured.
To me, the most logical focal point in the collection is the red boathouse. You captured this boathouse in two of the three images but need to include it in the middle image. If you can go back and re-shoot, I would suggest a straight on shot with the red boathouse in the center to act as a transition between the two perspectives shown in the top and bottom images.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique.
Nice pictures, but too similar for a triptych. One of these shots, a tight shot on one boat house, and maybe a third smaller detail shot would have been better for me.
For me, this would've flowed better if the middle and top sections were seperated. The direction of the boat houses is the same, but then different on the bottom. Kind of lacks balance, imo. But great colors and reflections on the water.
I am thinking if you had placed the 3rd photo in the middle it would be a more balanced presentation. Right now it doesn't really flow. I also don't like the blue border around each photo. The photos themselves are nice, I like the bold colours.
