    I like it! Nice that there was nothing else in the water. Another boat or anything else would have really taken away from the picture.

    Another great one here. I like the very artsy composition. This has a great feel about it. Really well done.

    Wonderful image. This would look good printed up really big on a proper art paper.

    Very, very nice composing. I want more contrast in the upper third of the image.

    oops, u posted at the same time I posted matt. Thanks for your suggestion. I like the softness that's inherent in this. I think adding contrast would make it lose that softness. Thanks

    Re: Row

    It is a very cool image! I like it but wonder if it could have been better from a lower vantage point (so the tower on the left didn't line up with the mountains). But that probably wasn't possible given the type of shot. Two thumbs up from me!
