Olyuzi,

Wow, finally a comment that I can make to you without any politics involved :).

I'm not really seeing a ton of the "leaning" that a lot of commenters are talking about. I see a little but it isn't a big problem here. One thing I did notice right away is how hot the exposure is on the church. This could be a result of a few things. The shadow cast on the church could have tricked the camera into using a slower shutter than it should have, or maybe you decided to boost the contrast to bring out the shadow on the front some more. I'm not sure. I dont' think it's terribly important. One suggestion I have is to try maybe turning this into a tritone or quadtone image and using the shadows to your advantage in that area. Shadows are cooler in b&w. It's a calendar worthy subject, in need of some minor tweaking. Hope this helps a little. Take care rant buddy.

Comment by Zoomdak:
Intriguing composition, entire image seems to be focused to high, like all the elements are pushing the eye off the top border. Maybe if the angle was a bit higher to create more of a gap between the boat and the dock.

I really liked the idea, and frankly struggled with my rating of this image. I feel that the warf and the boat are in competiion for my attention, with no defined subject. I find myself wishing that the warf could acecentuate the boat in some manor.
Good idea.

Kinda nice, but I'm not clear on what the subject of the photo is; boat or pier.

The weeds in the foreground are distracting to me.

The grass in the foreground detracts from this otherwise good effort

Not bad, but a bit cluttered

Interesting shot, however i think it suffers from it being too busy.
