Hi Len,

You have a very strong subject here. The red is striking and the reflection in the water is good. The backdrop of buildings is attractive. I'd prefer that you weren't quite so close in though with the framing. Perhaps some more space on the left for the boat to move into (a good third more at least) and some more surrounding environment e.g. what was along the dockside in the way of buildings, dockside paraphernalia etc

Just my $0.02 Dave B.

Good picture great colours. I think a bit more space to the left fro the boat to move into would make it a bit better

Hey Len
Great Shot. BG bit busy for me, maybe a smaller DOF would have blurred them slightly. fantastic colours though..nice work..try turning sepia or BW and adding some noise (grain) to get a really antique feel to it..
