This is a really fantastic shot! So much life in her eyes and smile! I love the DOF on it too, it gives the water a really nice look. Overall colors in this are really great!!! Really great work!

Marvelous shot. Such life! I really like the light and colors. The background is a little distracting to me. The far shore cuts straight across the image. I don't know what to suggest except to crop it just below the shoreline and make it a landscape orientation.
great moment, really like the diagonals with the sail and her following it up, unfortunately I find the high contrast of the land, along with the warm colors there tend to be very distracting. add to an overall softness or motion blur and doesn't quite pull together.
There's something in this I quite like. Not sure what it is. I was just flicking thru photos, havent for ages, and was about to pass over yours, but checked in, and somehow felt I'd like to comment. Technically, its not perfect, but somehow it has a certain intangible something, a mood, a sense of action and liveliness. The billowing flowing sail, and her lively expression..........yep, it speaks to me. Well done. It's a pity I no longer have an active vote here.
