Getting rid of that blue hose / rope would have added two or three points to my vote.

With all of the browns in the water, dock & rust that bright blue rope is out of place. This is advanced editing, I'm sure you could have done something to "fix" that. :)

Not really a good color for a river, is it? And from the looks of the water line on the boat it appears to be rather caustic.

I think I would have changed the color of the blue rope to something less vivid (maybe brown to blend in) and probably straightened the boat or tilted it more dramatically. The tilt as it appears doesn't strike me as intentional.

good idea but too little boat and too much dock - the dock dominates the shot

Very nice colors...I can almost 'feel' the muddy water.

This is just ok for me... I think the blue rope is a bit distracting and the photo seems a little off kilter.

interesting contrast between the black insides of the boat and the wood platform...

Interesting idea, composition too busy for me though well exposed plus I do like the textures of the wood and water
