This is a nice scene. The two boats work well together in this composition. I like the layout overall, what may have held this back some is the lighting. I'd love to see this retaken (if possible) at dawn or dusk to catch some flattering light on this fine subject.

I'm not sure, but it looks oversharpened.

Lovely wood on the forward boat. This is a tad oversharpened to my eye, but nice rich color.

Just had to give this one special attention! Love the colors and crop. Might be a tinge over sharpened. BOL

I like the line and the color the bright blue against the earth tones is very pleasing

A little heavy-handed on the sharpening but the colors *rock*

I like the colours and composition, very nice. Seems a bit too contrasty.

Nice color - the ball is a bit distracting in my opinion...
