I love how you have the one piling so close in the foreground and right on dof to still leave enough detail in the water and the background which all add to the texture but leave me focused on the piling in the front. Great job.
The shot just doesn't do anything for me. THe background seems more distracting than anything else and the subject doesn't seem intriging. It's a little soft as well.
A technical success from the slightly out of focus background which compliments the crips and detailed foreground and subject. A little shy on having any significant artistic impact. Excellant control of the white areas which give the appearance of bleaching, but not losing any details. A solid entry into the challenge.
i like the subject and the pilings in the background. i think it might be a bit more powerful if you had stepped back a little bit or maybe shot from a different angle so the background worked even more in your favor
might have taken off the right side of the picture more...given it a little more interest...good focus, excellent exposure and colors...but lacks "pop"
