Shot in Cannes, France while I was on vacation. The reflections of the masts in the water was very interesting to me. I can still imagine I am there, feeling the warm setting sun glowing and watching the people walking around the harbor.

What a fantastic shot. You should think about adding this to DCP prints, because i think it would look really cool hung on a wall.
I love it.

I love the reflections of the mast of the yachts, looks like bolts of lightning. This is a pleasing B/W composition.....Well done.

The boats are merging with the buildings in the background, which makes the image seem a bit confusing and overly busy. Lovely light, though, and nice reflections on the water.

Like the ripple of the masts which leads to an interesting perspective.

The reflections look like streamers...this is really nice, and the choice of B & W was perfect. This just would not have been the same in color...nice work.

This is a neat pic. I used some paper to slice the top off, leaving just the hulls cut off where the three boats on the right happen to have the same top edge and I liked it better.

Excellant composition. Very smart. The squiggly reflections of the masts are very cool. I like how you've cropped/framed this, so that the reflections kind of stand as their own entities. Very cool.
