Really good shot, back-lighting well controlled as is the reflection and 95% silhouette. Freighter adds a touch of balance to what would have been an empty sea and vast sky.

Overused, repulsive border; image ignored: automatic 1

ETA: Based on someone's negative feedback to this comment on one of the images in this challenge:

The "image ignored" simply means that the score was based purely on the ugly border. Perhaps I should have said "image not considered."

I like this very much,the layers of composition with the light playing of the different mediums is a treat.

Nice atmosphere on the river bank, and such a great cloudy day to get this picture.
I would probably boost the blues just for a more contrasty image, but the overall silhouette and the clouds are so well controlled, it all fits together.
