What a serenely beautiful photograph! Love the contrast of the boat in sunlight and the rest in shade...very dramatic. You've composed this will. Nicely done, mate!

Oh what a fine fine capture of light by you and the jib. Your photos are pure pleasure to view.

Roz, thankyou for that. The lens is the Canon 100-400L IS and the shot was handheld. Great lens.

I like this a LOT, Steve! ... The contrast between the sharply lit water and boat on top of the soft dark misty background scenery is stunning ...

The only thing I can think of is maybe you don't need quite ALL of that dead space on the left?

Nice composition. IMHO more burning in the waters would help. It just seems too bright and distracts the eyes away from the boat and sails. I like the tone and muted colors of the land/background. It fits well without screaming for attention of the viewer. There is something (another boat?) right in the middle. At first glance I missed it, but now that I see it I'd suggest clonning it out. Nice clean simple border. In a challenge I'd rate it a 6 or 7.
