The gap would look great with text!

too much water. and too brown.

Lovely colors. This would be even better if you had employed the rule of thirds.

Using half of the shot for the smooth water gives up a lot of visual interest, at least for me.

All of that negative space in the water is just screaming for some text! I'm not sure I like the horizon right through the center, but with text added at the bottom, it might work.
11/21/2006 08:28:33 PM
My oncly concern is that the horizon is right in the middle and the water in front does not add much to the really nice cityscape

Too much empty foreground - perhaps you could have utilised some of it to write a caption.

The refections are a bit too weak to make this work IMHO, with just a boring area of brown at the bottom. The building to the left also looks a bit chopped off, so the composition isn't spot on in that respect either. On the good side, it's nicely exposed with no burn outs, so good job there!

too much of the water to be seen here - you could have filled that space with the citiy's name to balance the composition

the constant coloration does well in this, good work

What city?

A pano would have been gorgeous here. I don't think you could have done that within the rules, unless you did some serious cropping. As is, there is just a little too much water. But I certainly like the colors. You should have taken advantage of the special rule, and added some text to let us know what city this is.

This photo seems a little fuzzy. When I do long expose photos I manually set the focus on 'infinity' and that tends to get a clearer photo.

A cool cityscape! I might have added text in the water area since text is allowed in this challenge. As it is, it seems like the shot is a little too evenly divided in half. I probably would have cropped it so that there was less water and more sky, or fill the water with appropriate text.

nice, where is this ? pity that there is no text, i will not vote it down :-)
