    I think it does show a slight (??) shift to the blues. It's hard to say how much though w/o being there, most of the blues here are normally blue (the shoreline could probably be greener). What do you want to crop btw? Maybe some off the top, but I think that generally it's a good composition.

    I would straighten the horizon and crop it so that the rope exactly ends in the corner.

    Looks like a heavy blue cast. I would try going into selective color and lower the blue some and a levels adjustment to lighten it some. Can I post an edit?

    Re: A Wakeboarder (!)

    Thanks for the suggestions so far,

    I forgot to mention that I want to print this picture on a 8x10 paper and my camera does 2000x3008 (that's not a 4x5 ratio) so the image must be less taller...

    Thanks again for the critiques !
