I like the blues, the texture of the water, and the loneliness of the ship. 7

very intersting lines - great color

WOW...beautiful shot!! I love how the sky looks against the water, and the boat is really neat out in the water, nice shot for the objective.

this works.
the boat is a strong enough image to handle both the wave in the foreground and the clouds.
strong, simple, clean.

the wave is a great touch to this. seems like the focus is on the clouds though and the foreground and boat are blurry. i'm not sure how that's even possible. motion blur?

I think you could have zoomed in further and still acheieved the topic at hand.
04/30/2005 01:31:25 PM
Yes. Photo nice. The colors are soothing.
04/30/2005 12:41:26 PM
great use of space

I love the soft feel of this photo, suitable for hanging and an image to be proud of.

great colors,,great contrast
04/29/2005 10:34:16 AM
interesting use of theme

beautiful photo; my eye tends to wander a bit between the sailboat and wave, and the clouds are amazing. Not quite as minimalistic as others but still a glorious 8!

The boat seems to be out of focus.

very nice atmosphere and composition. its too soft for my taste. what is that thing in the middle of the water? (7)
04/28/2005 07:39:54 PM
the blues and whites unify the image - nice eye for color
04/28/2005 05:33:07 PM
a bit out of focus... but i like the composition and colors, really calming blues.
04/28/2005 04:53:53 PM
At last a picture that meets my association with this challenge. The lack of detail in the sailboat, the surf and the cloudy sky gives it a high Bob Ross level. Well done !
04/28/2005 12:41:32 PM
Very nice clean image. Better than some other sailboat pictures i've seen so far.
04/28/2005 10:24:33 AM
That little yellow dot draws attention to it very fast.
04/28/2005 09:38:51 AM
Lovely shot - all works together realy well: the clouds, the foreground wave, and the contrast of the sails. 7/10
04/28/2005 09:19:39 AM
This is a nice image. I like the way the clouds look in this photograph. I also like the colors seen throughout the image. Nice work.
04/28/2005 06:50:58 AM
I think the sail boat is obviously the main subject of the photo, yet my eye is constantly drawn to that breaking wave at the bottom. Perhaps a different crop? 6
04/27/2005 11:22:29 PM
I love the blue and white. Nitrogen is awsome.
04/27/2005 05:55:05 PM
Beautifully done, too bad, u can't clone out that buoy. a stronger focus maybe would enhance the image, but o well, 6
04/27/2005 03:11:26 PM
love sail boats
04/27/2005 12:59:57 PM
Nice idea. It be even better if sharper and maybe a bit lighter. Also, the unlevel horizon is distracting.
04/27/2005 08:53:42 AM
Nice
04/27/2005 06:49:07 AM
clouds are nice, but the boat is so blured..
