Thanks for the comments in your critique of my photograph,most helpful.
I knew that it was stretching the challenge parameters just a wee bit!!!

You were spot on with the time of day,it was sunset!!!

I have taken this shot on numerous occassions and in varying light conditions and in mop it looks better in sunset.

Yeh I agree that the levels could have been a tad higher!

I,m afraid to disappoint you but no I do not live on a houseboat and have to walk at least 3/4 mile.

many thanks

Wow CC:
I'm excited to critique this interesting photo. I have few comments or suggestions to add here.
Is this a landscape?.....well, no it's not. I'm personally not a stickler for keeping exactly on the challenge. I do like people to be close to the 'challenge' idea. Here I'm hoping that you live on a houseboat and that this is YOUR landscape. ;)!
Composition-Perfect, good perspective of the dock and boat.

Background-Sunset....would be my guess, but it could be sunrise also.

Digital Processing-Wonderful DOF

My Opinion-I hope you can tell by my earlier comment and this one that I like this shot very much and really wish there was a boat dock close by. I do love the light in this shot but would of liked the levels turned up just a bit. It was almost _too_ dark to take this shot. The goldish/pink reflection on the boats is wonderful along with the sky.
Thanks for letting me voice my opinion of your photo. Hope you print and frame this one. It's a keeper.

Great composition!
01/19/2003 09:03:20 PM
Very nicely captured. Colors, detail, and composition are wonderful.

I really like the light in this photo, and your camera angle. Very nice.
01/18/2003 11:02:52 PM
For some ridiculous reason this gave me the impression of a bunch of boats lined up to go to church... Heh. Your picture is very nice in many aspects, well done.

Its a greta photo. But its not a landscape, and the idea is for every to compete equal in the same genre. Playing with the title is cute, but doesn't change what it is.

Nice photo. Focus and lighting look good. 7 waltoml.
01/16/2003 10:21:41 PM
Unique point of view! I like the colors and the way the mast brakes up pattern of the boats. Good eye!
01/16/2003 02:00:10 PM
Neat photo, but (sorry) slightly off the challenge idea. Nice sunset in the background. I think the mast coming out of the line of boats seems like an unfortunate placement (it just looks wrong to have mast coming out of a dingy's nose). A strange idea: get closer to a boat and get the sunset reflection in it's side... maybe too strange. Sorry, 5 Swash

I don't see this as a landscape. I do like the perspective of this pic. You could've used a few less clouds though so that the colors of the boats was stronger. Too bad we can't dictate the weather. I'm sure it'd improve most of my shots - Inspzil

Now this is a great picture regarding the subject (haven't seen boots alligned that was before), the color (boats and sky) and the angle of view (you might have cropped it tighter on the right though). However, the picture comes short in my opinion regarding the challenge topic: therefor you were too close to the boats and the open-feeling is missing.

I like the idea of the picture but I wish it were lighter
01/15/2003 05:53:12 AM
Good shot.
01/15/2003 03:53:08 AM
Nicely done. I love how the hulls draw the eye down through the picture, then the mast draws your eyes upwards to the pretty sky. Well done. 8.

I like this, it is different. I am already sick of trees. Though I know it is not a classical landscape I give it a 8. The color differential along with the with the sunset make for a colorful and interesting shot.
01/15/2003 12:06:16 AM
Great composition! Love the strong diagonal line! Colors look a little flat to me, but not extremely so.
01/14/2003 09:02:01 PM
Great composition and lovely lighting and warm tones here. Great picture!
01/14/2003 08:19:02 PM
heh, I think I need to go look up "landscape" in the dictionary... I will get back to ya :o) good luck
01/14/2003 05:32:54 PM
Well seen. Good colours in the boats and a great sunset to boot!
01/14/2003 04:10:41 PM
At first I thought I would have liked to have seen these colors more vibrant...but for the time of day that it was...I think this is just right..the sky is beautiful too. Nice job...
01/14/2003 03:11:18 PM
how very eye catching 7
01/14/2003 12:15:52 AM
Exactly, nice pic, but I rate it low because it doesn't fit our parameters
01/13/2003 11:38:46 PM
I really like this photo. Beautiful sky, great job of cropping, great colors, clear. Unfortunately, not my idea of a landscape. Still can't go lower than a 4 for a great photo.

This shot just does it for me. I love, love this......yes to everything about this. Wonderful.....hey I like it.
01/13/2003 06:53:13 PM
Nice shot, but IMO this is not a landscape... :)

beautiful composision and exposure.
01/13/2003 11:58:35 AM
This shot would be well worth going back and photographing in different lights.
01/13/2003 06:57:16 AM
Wow!
01/13/2003 12:57:08 AM
Interesting photo, great use of lighting and colors. Not sure if it meets the challenge, however, as there is little land in the shot.
