 Taken from the same position as my 'Grass on Water's Edge' entry for the 'Backlighting II' challenge, Jan 2006.

The isolated grass isn't available anymore, and has been replaced by the foreground grass highlighted in this image. The background bokeh, so prominent in the original, couldn't quite be duplicated either, but I think this image does a better job with the subject positioning. Still a backlit subject, on the water's edge, at the same location. Hopefully that fulfills the challenge requirement. ;^)

I can't find your original to compare however this looks really nice. The background is quite busy but you made it look good and is not distracting, IMO. In fact having the boat there helps place the subject in context. As for the subject itself you captured it very nicely with good lighting. Such a simple everyday subject made to look good.

Dose not really fit title,the water is to shallow in the DOF, maybe a hypofocal focus would balance the image better...5
