taken inside a ship looking out onto the bay. these are my "pirates" (seen in other pics) on a break.
i saw the moment and had to take a pic - the light reflections were so beautiful and effective.
although, i can see a far more interesting story than just that...
Two teenagers sitting in the shaddows of a shack, smoking, nothing stimualted about their body language, a beautiful view that seems to have little effect on them. the street lamps are on and the sky is fast approaching darkness. The viewer is compelled to belive that these girls see the world but find little pleasure and understanding in it..
i've cropped the image to make it straight, and added a boader. :)

I like the frame as well as the dock and the lights. But the people don't add to the photo for me.

This is a great candid image. If there were more light on the foreground subjects and better focus, it's be tops (I realize that the reflecting lines and the people might not be simultaneously focusable but as far as an image these foreground subjects beg to be revaled a little better. 6

The reflections are very nice, but the foreground of the image is - in my opinion - poorly lit.

I like the framing around the shot, and I like the lines that the lights make in the water. But I think that having people really detract from this.

I like this. It looks like you are getting a snapshot of something that is not normally seen. You are the proverbial fly-on-the-wall.

Im sure you'll get heck from lots of folks over technical issues, but I like this one. 8
