Greetings from the Critique Club
Hard for me to critique this one as you have received quite in depth comments already. This is a lovely image and fits the challenge well. I think you could have improved your score with a few minor changes. A few have been mentioned already, such as cropping out the foreground. I'm also not convinced about the border the horizontal lines don't work for me at least.
Normally a 6+ score would give you a higher placement, but I think this was quite a strong challenge with some quite high scores. Still not too shabby and a nice addition to your front page.

The clarity of the ultra-blue captures my heart immediately as I love this particular color, and the quality of the tones invites me to sit here for a while and enjoy this scene. The delicate tendrils of the clouds create the feeling of motion balanced with the infinity of the underlying almost an underwater impression. The foreground interest of the rocks give the impression of not quite knowing what to do with this part of the image. If the processing brought out the golden tones more perhaps that would help to anchor the rocks to the photo. Otherwise, those rocks sit there in a half state neither in complete detail or strong silhouette. Also, I can't figure out why you put those lines in the border on an image all about being border-less. Just my two cents...;-)

Tone on this image is terrific. The ghostly balance between midground and sky is fantastic, the way the ghosting waves echo the hint of lightness at the horizon. The foreground, however, is killing you. For an experiment, crop out the entire foreground so there's just pale water through horizon to sky, and see how much more evocative the image is. Also, you have a dust blob near the horizon halfway to the left edge from the center :-)
Nice shot! |

| the blue is so appealing in what would otherwise be a rather dull, boring shot. Nice choice. |
