Wow, Brian! This is beautiful. I am really disappointed that it didn't score better. I read thru some of the comments and totally disagree with most of the criticisms. Because pattern is all about busy -- and this photo is MUCH better centered than if you had put the mast off to one side (in my opinion). I think people get way wayyyyyyyy to hung up on thinking you can't ever have a good photo without that often boring rule of thirds in play.

Sorry. This deserves to have finished much better than it did!

I think the background adds a lot to this picture. The different kinds of lines are great for this subject.

There's something about that leaves me feeling anxious. Like the idea is incomplete, like a book with the last page torn out. I get everything but conclusion. Perhaps it is that the tops of the masts aren't there.

good capture of the golden light, a few too many lines and mast too centred imho

A bit of compression artifacts showing, especially toward the top of the frame around the masts. You file size is 99k, you could have used less compression and eliminated the artifacts. Always go with the maximum size you can use and still fit into the rules. That's 150k in this case.
