For what its worth I think that this image is oversaturated and rather flat. The reds in particular seem too strong imo and whilst you have a nice leading line with the footpath the line leads nowhere. Perhaps a lower vantage point, crouching or on your stompic to get more sky at the top. (and dare I say it, closer to the edge.)

your aperture is at 9 which is somewhat narrow dof, and that could be part of the problem with the lack of sharpness throughout the photo.

Now all that being said you obviously have a decent eye for photos it just the fine tuning that you can improve(as we all are)

Could use a little bit of USM.

Neat. How do the keep the sailboats from tipping over when the tide goes out? I love the colors of the boats too. The one in the foreground could almost have been built out of Legos.

I like these scenes when the tide is out. It makes it kind of hard to take your boat out!

The sail seems to be a bit blown out.

Boosting the saturation might help the colors. They appear washed out.

Dead center kills movement.

You've really captured the stunning blue as well as the lace-like quality of the wings. Really nice :-)

Thanks for your comment. I've googled it, and think you're right.

Nice shot though. The DOF is perfect at the entire bug is pretty much in focus. Compositionally, I think a little more space in front of the bug would improve the image. As it is it feel s cramped on the right.
