Title: Crossing



Jurors Scores Critiques
Ann Alimi 7 The surrounding area is more interesting in this image, than the man rowing. Man in the boat has a bit of a “snapshot” appeal and being in the front of image takes major importance.

It might have been better to have take the photo with the boat a bit further away and give the interesting background scene more importance.

Nice house color reflections would also show better.
   
Kerri-Jo Stewart 8 Great capture in both the background and the movement of the boat.

I would love to see the next image in the series a bit further down so that the purple building and maybe the red window and its reflection would be out of the image.

Putting the rower in the final 1/3d of the image would also put more emphasis on him and balance the image.
Nicely done!!
   
Leah Gray 7 A well-seen area. The soft light works well for this colourful scene.

The boat captain has been caught with a wary look. Perhaps waiting a few moments until he looked away would have given us a better story of someone rowing home instead of looking at the photographer.
