Comment by Rebecca:
Nice light on these, interesting to see a stormy sky behind them instead of the usual sunny blue.

Chris just said what I was thinking; only, much better than I could have said it! Great colors and composition. Though, I wouldn't expect anything less from you:)

Comment by CEJ:
Very nice view...at first a little busy with all the antennae, but the compositional split between the top, middle and bottom is very nice. The color shift in the sky is excellent (good timing). The amount of light/detail on the boats is perfect. Nice job!

Shot on assignment for a story about the Wampanoag Indians, the first settlers hereabouts

Comment by cycleboy:
Nice technically and does look like something we'd see in the papers.

It won't affect my rating of this shot, but I don't think your title needs to be trying to prove this is journalism - the shot does it on its own. That said, to me the title is not part of the challenge, a good photo showing a journalistic angle is and this one has those.

Nice shot to accompany the story. Well exposed to get detail in light and shadowed areas; nice composition.

I love the feel of this shot. Considering that there really isn't any main subject it still captures your attention. It's almost like the trees are coming at you or you're moving into the image - a sense of movement, which is a bit surreal. You did a wonderful job of exposing for this challenging scene. Very nice! Good luck in the challenge.

Beautiful place and beautiful couours. The rythm quite strong here, although the surroundings drive the attention away a bit.

The Intimate Fulcrum — Love's Failed Leap

Comment by ElGordo:
Vaguely reminiscent of the hospital scene in the book, "Catch 22", where Nurse Duckett gets suspended upon her 'divine fulcrum'!
