Compositionally, I really like this shot. The boy, the pillar at the end of the dock and the ducks form a nice triangle that give the eye a contained place to "roam," so they stay in the frame. It also gives a stable base to the shot and that gives it a sense of balance.

Technically, I think have the deep dof that you have works well here. Ordinarily, it could be distracting, but here, it keeps that triangle I mentioned in focus as well. The other ducks are small enough to provide context without being distracting. I like the basic sepia tone, though it does seem to be a touch on the reddish end of it.

Overall, it is a good shot that is well done, and meets the challenge.

Best to you in future challenges.

Nice capture, but I don't particularly care for the pink tone.

A little too pushed in the processing, which is a shame as the tones are great and the composition wonderful.
