This is an amazing shot, the colours of the boats, the horizon and the clouds above, captured from an excellent perspective. There isn't an uninteresting part to this piece, awesome job!

I THOROUGHLY LOVE this photo! My only critique is, I'd have to photoshop out the numbers...even if it was only in the foreground boat. Waaaayyy to distracting and take away from the feel of the boats being old and used. Great shot!

nice picture, the sky makes it so dramatic and the crop you have chosen works very well for the dynamic of the scene. the title is "at rest" but my impression is that those boats hate to rest and they desperately want to return on the sea!

This is one amazing picture. The sky... is the thickest blanket I've ever seen and the boats are just ... well not adorable, but yes, I love them.

the colors are a bit hopped, particularly the blues, but, i like the sky, and the crispness/clarity of the image. like the composition except for the inclusion of the pier.
