interesting... I think this photo has several issues... 1 - the cropped person in the lower portion of the frame is quite awkward.... 2 - where does this tie into the theme of 'at rest'? This, to me, looks like a case of trying to use a title to squeeze a photo into the challenge where it simply doesn't fit. 3 - the border color you chose here doesn't seem to fit at all. it's not a similar or supporting color for any of the colors within the photo.

I would give this a 10 if you had cropped out the strip of land at the top of the image. When you compose a photo, everything counts. Everything is for a reason :) The land strip at the top is a contrasty attention grabber that holds no actual interest, but pulls the viewer's eye from the subject...

I like canadian geese :) They are quite photogenic. This photo, as a land/waterscape seems to be ok, but there are a few opportunities I would have explored here. First of all, the composition of the 'horizon' splitting the center of the frame here seems to make me ask myself what it is in the top half of the frame that creates the interest for you. In general, when a horizon splits the frame in the center, there are equal amounts of interest on both sides of it. In this image, all of the interest is at the bottom of the frame. This composition does seem to help give some size and dimension perspective. If you want to include the far shoreline in this photo and keep a strong composition, maybe a lower angle photo would help a bit. You could still keep the geese in the frame and cut out a lot of the water between them and the land... bringing the horizon lower in the frame :) If I was aproaching this particular scene, i would have also probably tried to work a horizontal rather than vertical frame, but I don't know what is in this scene on the left or right... Likewise, I would have worked a tight composition of the geese alone....

This is a great image. I don't understand the tie-in with the challenge, but it's still a great piece :) = 10
