What a great picture of the destructive effects of weather in the Northwest. Nice composition. Focus on the boat could be a little sharper (USM?) A bit more contrast might make the boat pop from the background a bit more. Still a nice effort. - 8

This looks very compressed. You may want to save your files without reducing jpeg compression in the future. This is a great shot and subject - you mway want to think about reallyc ropping in - maybe framing it from where the boat starts to teh rope and the pole where it is tied up (cutting out the extra poles adn the extra dead space beyond the pole with the rope. -6
