I like the concept. I found myself trying to figure out in what this was reflected - I suspect a car mirror because I can see other cars in the reflection.

Texture, texture and more texture, yet it isn't too busy. Great use of off centering of the boat. Nice finish.

I can see why you might be upset about your "Progress" score. It looks like you've raised your bar with this one.

I think it looks very "sharpened", but doesn't strike me as "oversharpened". For this image, I feel like the processing just serves to add interest. Great colors and textures! Nice work.

I love it! I could probably take pictures of leaves forever and never get bored...I find them completely fascinating, the architecture and design of leaves is nothing short of amazing really. I love these dense yet muted colors and for me the border works...it reminds me of a gum bichromate print...there is this lovely subtle underlying texture, like when one applys their own emulsion to a sheet of coldpress watercolor paper...nicely done!
