i love this shot, the composition is strong and the color is awsome. I will say that I'm a bit torn b/c the challenge states that the subject must not become a silhouette, which I feel happened in this shot.

Nice photo but the rules state: 'Here's the catch: the subject must not become a silhouette because of the backlighting.' The boat is too much into silhouette.

Nice image - Very simple - Getting close to the silhouette thing though. The composition is a little boring.

It is unfortunate that the boat is a silouhette. I think that will hurt you in this challenge. Nice capture...second boat silouhette in this challenge that I have seen thus far.
