Its nice picture, great colors and good depth of field. Critique? It would be more interesting if it had something in the forground... perhaps just in shadow... to make it a little less bland. In other words (to me) its a nice background for something, but it needs something interesting in the foreground to complete the picture. I also imagine that the color mode on the camera and white balance might be fiddeled with to make the colors more vibrant.

Some examples of having a subject in the foreground... Yours would be an outstanding photo if maybe you had a little corner of the transom of the boat and a the shadow of a pretty girl sitting on it or even couple fishing rods or something like that. Just an idea.

Forgive the poor quality. This was a pre-digi days pic, so I had to take a digi of a film print to use as an example.

Nice pics. The top one looks like one of those pictures that has the little inspirational sentence on it.

I thought the ripples in the foreground were all it needed- it's beauty is in its simplicity. I think it's the best shot you've posted.
