This is just great. Wonderful feeling of space and stillness and I love the subdued colours too.

EXCELLENT!!! Congrats on 4th Apologies for not finishing my comments earlier. WOW, this image really shows great use of neg space. Great composition and overall technically great. I love the grey and the way that the sky blends into the horizon. You really feel as if they are in the middle of nowhere. Great work. Ruthann

Niiiiiiice. I really like this one. I wish the boat were just a bit sharper, but this gets an 8, regardless.

I like the way all the different backgrounds - water, clouds, misty mountain - are all shades of grey and can be looked upon as one whole. It's great how you have detail in each of these so it's clear what the location is, and yet they are so harmonious. The size and position of the colourful boat within this grey really gives a feeling of isolation to it. I think this is a strong example of visual negative space which isn't a completely solid colour background. 8, Kavey

nicely done, I like how the water blends with the background. The boat, then, is especially emphasized because it has color. karmat

Wonderful photograph! Really pleasing negative space - interesting variation in the shades of grey. I love the sail boat having some color. This conveys atmosphere and mood very well.

I really like this. It is a picture that makes me keep looking. And then look some more. The color on the boat against the grey tones draws me into the picture. The reflection on the water is very nice, also.

excellent shot - the grey sets off the color - the angle has you wanting to go away with them - just a nice shot and fits the category well. i hope this does well, 9 sgtpepper6344
