Wonderful capture of the light. Wonderful image.

the sky is amazing, the composition allows us to feel 'there', and the colors inviting, but i almost wonder if the foreground was brightened a bit and if the image was sharpened a bit too much as evidenced by the halo around the wreck

The rays are nice , but the lacking of black tones really don't appeal to me here. I feel you have a nice shot with excellent potential just that the editing of this version is not quite right IMO, 6

very nice i like the sunrays

Theres a lot of grain in the shadow under the boat. I think this could have used more contrast.

WOW. This is a very good image, exactly what I expect to see in this type of challenge. There is a very unfortunate halo around the ship and the rock in the distance, and the horizon... If not for that this would be an 8... As is, you get a 6.

this is some great scene you have here. I wish it were brighter in some areas though.

nice overall, but lacks contrast

for me the haze in this is distracting...to bad you couldn't get rid of it on the boat at least...but that is being ultra picky....your composition is well done...very, very good

A moment of complete tranquility. I love how this delightfully treads the line between clarity and softness. very well done......10

A beautiful scene, but it strikes me as having too much sharpening applied. The haloing is distracting.

The break-thru rays of sun really elevate this to a whole new level.

Nice scenic shot, but for me there just isn't enough contrast in the foreground details. When I first opened it I instantly wanted to see more details in the wreck.

It's not that it's too dark, as I think you've got the exposure just right, I think it's that there's not enough contrast in the details.

Very dramatic in composition and tonality--glad you resisted pushing the saturation!
01/23/2010 06:25:45 PM
Looks beautiful there but also stark and mysterious. I like your shot.

Great composition and lighting to htis shot, love all the great colors to it.

I wish that the old wreck had a bit more light on it still.

Because the wreck is in shadow I find myself drawn away from it towards the rest of the shot. If you could have used flash - I don't know how far away you were - it would have made the title subject a bit more impactful. The clouds and sunburst are nice.

Nice image. I like the sun rays. Seems a little low in contrast to me but still very nice.
