Well done - these are fun to do & work with later in post. I particularly like this one, the balance of exposure is really spot on - I don't think people recognize how difficult it can be sometimes to get shots like this right, it should've placed much higher, IMO :~)

Hey! I used to go fishing there back in the early 90's. :D Never bothered to look at what part of the country you're in. I liked Old Hickory Lake better for fishing but Percy Priest was close and convenient.

Congrats on breaking a 6 on this. :)

Very pleasing color tones in this. Subject-wise there may not be enough to really boost the score IMO. Good luck in the challenge.

Nice tones and composition. I feel like it needs a point to rest the eye on, though. 6

Very nice. Hmm, almost has the same feel as a backside photo I saw. I wonder if this is Lovethelight's entry? title is very similar....placid, placidity. Still a great photo no matter who took it. 8.
