Nice view, would have liked it better with more of the dark left and right parts cropped off.

I am trying to stretch my imagination to see what the habit is....the squirrel has the habit of blocking the gate??

A further note...

I find the toughest part of dpchallenge so far is the short period for submission. I often have a great photo taken a few weeks prior that I could submit but trying to get a photo submitted in the meager one week window is a challenge. This was taken shortly after getting home from work on the last day of the challenge submission date. The sun was beginning to set and as such my time was limited for capturing this exposure. The camera had no shutter control so I really couldn't adjust for lighting. But I do appreciate the feedback. What I'd have given to have had my E-20 at the time and a nice freighter moving down the channel for the foreground....

By the way...this was taken a block away. So it's hard to make it an "interesting" harbor.

I got quite a few awesome shots while on vacation. Even a trick photography shot that is an amazing blending of a lighted chandalier inside a hotel and a palm tree outside. Sadly, by the time I got home there was not much time to submit my photo. As they were all taken the week before. I find this constraint extremely frustrating?

I am just wondering how many here work full time and do other activites than photography and still get time to submit?

And where was this shot in the silhouettes challenge? Good here, even better there. The colors are a little washed out towards the horizon. Perhaps a little contrast tweak and a saturation sponge to go with it?

This was my first entry....sadly, the camera used had no ability to focus, zoom, etc. So I find the 4.8 rating fairly respectable. I still like the angles on the shot.

I do want to thank all of you who gave input,...it is very appreciative. I am fairly new to photography and definite appreciate the insight provided.

I just wish I had had more time and could have used my Olympus E20. Perhaps I'll retake this shot with the E20N and post a link here. The E20 will give me some control on exposure, focus, etc.

the subject is too dark and indistinguishable.
