The sails look like they might be a little sharp, and I am guessing that you had to prcess out some movement from the boats. That isn't a big enough issue to worry about though. The composition and the color of the clouds makes this a very good image.
You have a winner! I love the layeriung effect of the water, the blac/brown land, the buildings, the two layers of blue mountains and ther three layers of sky. Lighting on the clouds is exquisite.
wow is that a great sky! you've got a bit of everything (sky, clouds, city, mountains, water) all layered into the shot. I like the way you filled the frame.
Wow! What a difference a sky can make. The scene in the foreground is nice, but not really out of the ordinary. However, add that sky to it and the wonderful hills in the background and you have a great combination of colors and interests here. I think I might like to see more of the water, but I'm not sure. Very nice shot!
Lovely - to me this is all about horizontal planes or lines - the water, the boat sails, the grass, the buildings/ treeline, the mountains, the pale blue clouds and then the sunlit clouds and then more blue above - just lovely!
Very nice clouds, they almost dominant the entire image. Their warm colors also contrast nicely to the rest of the 'cold' bluish image. The use of layers is good too, with the water, land, buildings, mountains. A little noisy in the mountains but a good overall shot. Very picturesque.
