Hello from the critique club

An excellent image that contributes well to the open challenge

Welcome to DPC! And what a good start with your virgin entry, its nicely composed and captures the essence of the moment well. Your DOF is good giving sufficient clarity for where he's headed with just a little softness in the background or should I say his foreground which isolates him well, the reflections are good with nice ripples. The 'decisive moment' has also been well timed at the end of his paddle stroke. The only concern I do have is with those ripples the highlights are blown, perhaps a stop of minus exposure compensation would have helped to preserve some detail here.

Thank you Tammie for your great contribution to the challenge and DPC and I look forward to seeing more from you soon.

So weird to have a tree tattooed on the back. Good feeling overall. A 6 from me
