You need to make those reflections fiery red....! ha. I like this photo and do think it works in monochrome.

thanks olga yes I think so as well

Hi you need to crop at the right to eliminate those branches coming into the frame. The reason for this is because our eyes go there and then our brains try to complete the picture by guessing what it is and then we quickly leave the photo and you don't want that to happen, you want the viewer glued to your image. If you look at the thumbnail print of this photo have a look and it looks mighty fine the way they have cropped it for you as they eliminate the black shadow at the left too and a bit of the sky has been taken down. Play with it, it is a fine photo!

thanks for remarks and info

A well done stop action shot, frozen. You have this cropped tightly and that is your choice to highlight the colour orange and it works. I feel it may have had more visual punch had you given "room" for this speedboat to speed into , it would have made it a more dramatic photograph, and if you are who I think you are then I know you know this already, but if you are not who I think you are then forgive me.

thankyou olga,yes spot on with comments
