Comment by KaDi:
I love the peaceful tranquility of this photo. Good eye to capture the color on the one boat without the distraction of color occuring elsewhere. Subject is expertly placed. If there's one thing to quibble with it's the jaggy edges on the the rim of the near boat--perhaps a result of oversharpening? (I don't think it's my screen, apologies if it is.)

It has a dreamy feel to it. I love the yellows and greens. The blue in the sky really stands out in this one compared to the other.

Pretty shot. Nice reflections from the water. I find a nice little point of interest in the light on the right edge, and it's reflection in the bottom corner. Overall, out of the 2 versions, I prefer the left one. It just seems more appealing to my eye. I think it feels "softer", which goes along with the scene, relaxing and serene.

Comment by alanbataar:
The unsharp masking is excessive. Try a couple of things -- assuming you're using photoshop: use a lower value for the Amount (I'd think between 40 & 80 would be adequate), and perhaps a slightly higher value for the radius, perhaps somewhere between 1 & 4.

Good picture, but maybe a little too soft for my taste. Nice colors and composition. I'm not sure if it meets the challenge 100%. (6)
