You have a good eye for composition. This is another wonderful picture. The sky looks like it suffers more from small low clouds than from noise. The blobs are too big to be noise, imo. The focus does seem to be off, but I bet it looks a lot sharper in it's original size. This is something I would love to have on my wall! The colors are outstanding. Peaceful yet stirring at the same time. Good job. Let me know if you offer this as a print.

this has great coloring in it. there does not seem to be any focus though. a lot sharper on the wharf would make it stand out against the background more and give more impact. a small aperture and longer shutter speed may have helped with getting the sunset a little crisper too

Wondeful colors, but next time, turn down the saturation a little bit. It can help at times, but can also be overdone.

High quality moment, medium quality picture. Don't get me wrong, this is a great shot the quality just seems too compressed. Colors are great, and composition.

I would have liked it even better with a person in the hammock.

Focus too soft but like that hammock - a good place to find a bit of quiet...

The color and composition of this image is excellent, but poor focus and what appears to be mottled image sky noise hurts this otherwise wonderful shot.

If the focus had been stronger this would have been a winner.

this is postcard worthy, love the colors and composition, only complaint would be a little uncrisp

Focus is slightly off, the hut seems out of focus. Larger DOF maybe? Colors are great, and a good composition.

I hope this wins! Fantastic shot. Wish I was in the hammock

A lot of potential in this shot.
Nice reflections and beautiful colours on the water.
The silhouetted hammock would have been perfect with someone in it.
If the blue sky had been "cleaned up" a bit..this would have been my top image.

A great shot in general, although it's rather pixelated. If this was a bit sharper, it would be a 9-10 in my book!

Lovely. I like the hammock.

This is an excellent photo. The composition and color are beautiful. I especially like the smoothness and colors in the water. However, nothing in the image specifically denotes silence. With my luck some bozo would be revving up a leaf blower or chainsaw somewhere nearby.

To me the hamock really says silence..... it looks inviting and draws me into the photo. The colors are very pretty.

Would have rated you higher, but focus is not quite shap enough. Lovely idea and photo.

meets challenge but it seems a bit harsh in light and lacking in focus
