what a really pretty view!
05/12/2002 10:27:00 PM
This is a really excellent shot. I am quite impressed. I'm anxious to see the technical details about the photo (shutter speed, aperature, etc).
05/12/2002 09:16:00 PM
Great shot, but as for selling sailboats, it's not working. I think a day shot of the sailboat in use would be key.
05/12/2002 07:21:00 PM
one word - beautiful. (great photo)
05/12/2002 03:17:00 PM
My favorite pic this time. This is absolutely gorgeous. Next time, though, take a sling shot or bb gun and shoot out the lights that are so bright. Ha Ha. Even so, nice job. 10

I think the picture might be a little "weak" for what you're trying to sell -- I see ships docked, none sailing. HOWEVER, the picture is very nicely done. I think maybe I would have cropped it at the 640x427 size to remove some of the extra blank sky and water -- but that's very much a personal taste
05/11/2002 08:05:00 AM
Beautiful shot, would make a great advert!
05/10/2002 08:39:00 AM
If you're advertising rides on the boat you are on, it would give more context (but not look as nice) with part of your boat showing in the foreground. If you are advertisng "Vancouver Nite Life!" I say send me a ticket...
05/10/2002 01:49:00 AM
A really nice picture, if a little oversharpened (jaggies in the rigging show it best). Can't for the life of me find a product here, though. Whatcha selling?
05/09/2002 03:13:00 PM
if this was on a travel brochure i would want to sail at midnight! AWESOME!
05/09/2002 02:45:00 PM
Too pretty!
05/09/2002 10:50:00 AM
Lovely photo, the reflection is dazzling. Great idea.
05/08/2002 11:24:00 PM
beautiful what is it advertising
05/08/2002 02:29:00 PM
wow that water is so smooth, unfortuanly no one there is sailing. otherwise it is a beautiflul shot. was the watter really that calm or did the long time exposure cover up the reflection?
05/08/2002 08:52:00 AM
Picture is good but the masts take away alot of detail of the buildings. The middle is too busy.
05/08/2002 07:35:00 AM
WOW what an incredible picture. TOTALLY crisp! i guess this is an ad for lifestyles in vancouver?
05/07/2002 11:40:00 PM
the long exposure makes it look almost unreally sitll on the water. Love that effect.
05/07/2002 11:26:00 PM
If I were convinced this was a product, this would be a ten. The photographic and compositional quality of this photograph is absolutely amazing. Great exposure.
05/07/2002 11:26:00 PM
Absolutely stunning!
05/07/2002 07:28:00 PM
beautiful night shot, but I don't see how it sells the idea of the title, none of these boats are sailing, maybe it just needs a better title. good picture though and I'll score it based on photographic merits
05/07/2002 06:00:00 PM
Beautiful picture. Great night shot.
05/07/2002 05:53:00 PM
Truly a beautiful photo. I love the composition, lighting and reflection. Very well done! Without the title, however, I'm not sure I'd know what you were selling...
05/07/2002 05:42:00 PM
I just love watching the lights come on while it downloads. great picture but what are you selling?
05/07/2002 05:18:00 PM
Not sure if you are selling Vancouver as a vacation spot, but the photo is fantastic and I have rated it as such.
05/07/2002 03:30:00 PM
superb night shot, one of the few occasions when the law of 3rds is diproved!
05/07/2002 02:16:00 PM
This is a beautiful picture. Can you really rent a boat and go sailing at midnight? How romantic.
05/07/2002 12:29:00 PM
I'm not really sure what is being sold here. Vancouver tourism?
05/07/2002 08:21:00 AM
Nice shot. Looks like you were pushing the limits of resolution here for a 640X480 shot. I rate this picture very high. Keep up the good work.
05/07/2002 07:28:00 AM
People probably don't think this meets the challenge criteria, but I think it's beautiful, and it definitely makes me want to go midnight sailing in Vancouver :)
05/07/2002 06:28:00 AM
absolutely beatiful picture, but "I" feel its a bit too vague as an advert. Just my opinion but I think this pic could have been taken and then titled to fit the challenge.
Quite a high score for sheer beauty though
05/06/2002 10:45:00 PM
very pretty. this photo makes me want to visit vancouver. advertisement successful.
05/06/2002 08:11:00 PM
This is a beautiful photograph! I love the reflections in the water. I'd take a ride on one of these in a minute!
05/06/2002 04:43:00 PM
Amazing pic, I jus don't see a product in it.
05/06/2002 03:04:00 PM
This is a beautiful night skyline. the lighting is very nice. Do they really sail at night? Looks like the water is calm... any breeze out tonight? lol... just kidding with ya.. nice job!
05/06/2002 02:13:00 PM
excellent photo, not very advertisement like
05/06/2002 01:42:00 PM
Great photo. I love the way the water stayed so still for you which makes it looks more like a sheet of glass than water. Great.
05/06/2002 12:23:00 PM
Brilliant picture. Very good adverisement for Vancouver.
05/06/2002 12:03:00 PM
I guess your selling or doing an ad for Vancouver. However I believe most people would see this and say 'nice boats'...or 'nice shot'.
Don't get me wrong it's a good shot just off the mark.
05/06/2002 10:33:00 AM
Nice night shot. Especially interesting is the reflected light on the right. I don't see what you're advertising (my shot is probably equally vague) Tech 9 Advert 6 total 8
05/06/2002 09:49:00 AM
Nice photo. But who's sailing? It doesn't sell the idea to me very well. Oh yeah, nice photo.
05/06/2002 08:42:00 AM
Beautiful photograph.
05/06/2002 05:10:00 AM
What a beautiful photo !!! This looks like it is the centerfold of a magazine. I want your camera ~begs~ Maybe a good description will be in your details as to how you got such a wonderful capture:)
05/06/2002 04:29:00 PM
nice night shot
