Not a whole lot going on here I think becayse it looks like you really didn't touch the colors too much.

nice but, maybe a bit less of the bottom to keep the horizon from cutting the picture in half.

Very beautiful. I like the soft ripples in the water & the rays in the sky. Good job.

Greetings from the Critique Club

Oh, I'm so pleased to have the chance to look at this image again. I do remember it very well from the Challenge and marveled then (and now) at the perserverence of the cyclist.

You caught the moment well and used the 'desaturation' theme well when you laid all the emphasis of the image on the athlete. The encouragement of the bike rider beside him is well captured.

Why didn't it score higher? Who's to know. Sometimes these things just work out that way.

It's a good image that tells a good story.

Beautil image- looks like where I live. I love the clouds parting for the rays of sun on the water- magical ! Well done. 10
