Taken at Hervey Bay, Queensland, Australia. Focused on the pylons under the pier with the sun coming in from the left side. Cropped and adjusted colour slightly.

So difficult I know, but I find this suffers from a lack of definition around those piles and braces - probably simply because of the brightness of the water; even allowing the sunlit areas of wood to burn out (as I think you should, in this instance), there seems a lack of visible texture and tonality in the wood. Perhaps a touch sharper, or a little work with curves, might bring things out more? Good colour in the water though, and in the reflected light. 6
Feels a touch top heavy, which I think would be fixed by cropping a strip off from the top. Lovely rich colour within the water which contrasts with the faded weathered appearance of the wood.
Love the vanishing points in several levels. The colors are wonderul too. Oh, and the fact that the horizontal level is spot on makes a very calming composition.
