 Any morning I can go out to the park and there are diehard fishermen out in boats early in the morning fishing in the fog...except for when I go out to shoot for a boats challenge. These were the only boats in the water and I was the only person in the entire state park. My first shots looked good with early morning light and mist, but had a boring, gray sky. I went out the next day a little later. This shot was taken around 10am, so I lost my golden light, but it was the most beautiful sky I had seen in months.

Expertly composed and a beautiful scene. Good DOF and the clouds alone are worth the price of admission. A seven for you.

The bright clouds close to the horizon really make this shot for me.

A very nice straight forward photo. It seems the blues could be bluer and the greens are too green. I'll give your photo a 9 and did you know those cloud formations are called 'Mare's Tails'.

Wonderful wisps of clouds. Where are all the people? Looks like a place like this would make for nice family gatherings.

Awesome clouds; scene would feel even more idyllic to me if the water reflected more of that color.

Those whispy clouds are just awesome, almost look painted.
Beautiful green hillside and boats fit in quite well.
