the boat is closer
than I to the water, but
is so very far.

This is very nice. I like the bright lights and soft feel. The only thing I don't like is the bland sky, but that just takes the right moment.

it's very likeable; i love the glass-smooth, slightly diffused glow appearance of the water, the lush greens on the banks and the slightly decrepit look of the boat... what might harm your score a bit is the blown out sky and the fringing colour distortion thing happening to the lines of the trees in the background; cropping below the horizon might have helped a bit. it's also missing something; possibly someone pretending to be asleep in the boat, or something similarly cliched (which is what the voters go for, i think). 6.

I like the image better with the sky cropped out ... if the sky were more interesting, I'd leave it in. I like the peacefulness of this image.

This is Zen to a fisherman. It is not what I have in my head as zen, but it is still nice. Great job.

Guessing this is Bear? You do that gothic glow look so well. If not Bear then take it as a compliment. ;^)

I like the feel of this image overall. Very still and serene. The one negative I have is the sky in the background. How would this look cropping the top down into the distant treeline? Just a thought.

Good luck in the challenge.

I would have been tempted to completely crop the sky from this image and just leave the soft greens with the water. Really like the position of the boat :o)
