like the compressed depth and great to have the back/mid/ foreground elements.

Nice shot. I would have given it a '9' if the foreground had been a little more in focus.

If the person in the foreground had more to the left you could of had everthing more central in a triangle shape making this even better. I like the way that everthing is on three layers.

My only suggestion is probably impossible, but . . . If the liner could have been just a bit more to the right, it would have felt more balanced. the swimmer almost balances it, but he is a lot smaller than the ship. I really like the way you have gotten three different "uses" of the ocean captured.

Nice shot! I like the color graduation from light to dark in the water...

not sure what you want me to look at. Seems almost as if one of the 3 got in the way of your shot. (IMO) I wish the sand wasn't so out of focus.

This photo has a lot going on. You captured three worlds in one, all three of which are most likely completely unaware of the others. I love the feeling of this photo.

Nice use of ROT and placement of objects, however, all three are competing for my attention, and I'm not sure which to focus on. I know you wanted to show life at the beach, but picking one subject would've worked better in my mind. I like how the boy is about to dive into the water.

I told you I liked "feel the heat" better, but I really do love how the kid almost seems to be diving into the picture. You're hot.
