Sorry, the parallel lines here is a stretch...

...like boats without water. Sad image, hope that's temporary.

I've never seen so many sailboats stuck in the mud.... Where did the water go? Gave mea good laugh and is a very nice photo! Good Luck

This is rather a 'cleche' shot, beached yachts, but relieved completely by the fact that we are not looking at the boats,we are looking at the masts, which are almost perfectly parallel. This is very good indeed.

Very comic.

I like the photo...its very cool, pardon the pun
However I do wonder if it would be better just consentrating on 3 boats..or about half the scene. Nice job none the less.

Use the rule of thirds, either give me less sky or more sky or more harbor or less harbor, don't let the horizon sit in the middle of the picture.

Well, the tide's out, for sure! Nice parallel in the concrete structures, funny picture of the boats "high and dry". Good!

Wow... Where'd all the water go?

This composition does not match the parallel theme. The colors are also too bland. I think the pier in the background is distracting.

Hmmm...Musselburgh, wonder who took this ???
Good subject..very fitting for the challenge.

Where's the water? LOL Great shot!

Very good use of lines to enhance the picture. The masts really make the shot. However, the picture is a bit dull because of the gray sky and the grey mud of the tide being out.
