    Captain Morgan Moment

    This calm was a welcome sight...after a day of water skiing, wake boarding in high winds,very rough chop. That last shot is one of the "Locals"

    Your thoughts?

    An intersting composition on the first image, wish you hadn't chopped the wheel in half in the lower left hand corner of the frame. Certainly a very relaxing image, I like the unusual shadow on the building across the water.

    derrick, the third and fourth shots seem out of focus. Like the focal point was off a bit. That last one, the focal point looks like it was on the bg instead of the wood sculpture. In addition, there's too much clutter in the foreground. I'd have moved closer to the rail to get more of the sculpture and less of everything else. It seems that chair on the left may have been a problem though.

    The first image has the most potential. A really interesting take on a waterfront.

    Good light, nice reflections. I'm thinking you just needed to shoot a tighter composition (I'm not sure croping is the answer).
    No, I DON'T need that.
