The sky is such a pretty blue. I think this would have been better if I didnt see so much of the ground, but just enough to let us know that its not in water.

Very funny! Only thing I didn't like about it is the background. The boat matches the brown grass and its a bit distracting but I don't think you really could do anything about it.

Nice shot. I had to laugh upon first viewing this photo. The idea is great. It would be nice to have included more of the surrounding area, and not have the boat in the center of the composition.

Very good idea. Maybe a bit more thought could have been put into composition as the brish sky distarcts from the actual subject of this image.

Rain seems near, don't worry. A tad bright for me.

Love the idea and love the title to boot.

A very clever idea. There are many shots in this challenge of people trying to push stranded vehicles/crafts, but the use of the oar to paddle in your shot is inspired. Makes what could be a mundane image somewhat surreal and very humourous. Nice work.

Love the interpretation and set-up. Saturation of the sky looks unnatural compared to that of the rest of the image.

I like the idea but the shot needs something. You should get him to take off the hat and get closer the him and stand on a ladder to get more of the tall grass in the shot. I think you would have something there but this is just MHO.

That poor old boat isn't going anywhere! Maybe needs a bit more PP but good idea!

Great photo. I love the idea behind this. Beautiful work on this one

Great idea. Really creative. I would have cropped it a little tighter though to show the guy struggling to get the boat to move.

You need to wait until those rain clouds come a bit closer then your paddling might have some effect.

Good fun. The sky is nice but maybe you should have gone for a closer range.

Aha! Great idea! Sharp focus. The scene could have been composed a bit more interestingly with the camera angle etc.
