Wow. Seems like everyone commented on your title. If you would have titled it 'the bench' no one would have even cared about the title. lol
Who cares what you call the pic anyway, you could have titled it 'bird on a barn roof' for all I care and it would still be a good image. On that note though, if you DID mean for the boat to be the main focus, I think you failed. The bench IS the main focus here and the boat adds to it in my opinion.
Focus and clarity are really good. I like how we can see all the little branches in the trees.
Lighting is also good. I like how the trees and the bench are silhouetted. That looks really nice against the blue background.
You did a wonderful job of getting your horizon horizontal. i like the combination of the horizontal water line and the diagonal shore line.
The only thing I think I would like to have seen differently, is that I wish there were some clouds in the sky, but for a challenge like minimalism, it's probably good that there are no clouds...but outside the challenge, I think it would look nice with clouds.

| I like how you kept your subject a minimum without eliminating all other details of the photo. |

| The sail boat just does not stand out as the subject in the picture. I would have used "the bench" as the subject, it provides more interest to my eye than the sailboat does. I think the picture of the tree and bench is quite good! So I'll just rate the photo on what your strongest point of interest is because I like it better anyway and it still fits the challenge! 7 |

| I think that the bench is the focalpoint of this picture. The boat is incidental. I would crop the second tree on the right to open out the space. |

| IMO, for this challenge, I think this would work better with just the bench. To me, that is the strong point of the pic. |

| The sailboat is definitely small, but the bench and trees pull my eye away from the subject. 5 |

| I can't see how anything but the bench could be the subject here..the tree even brings your eye to it by framing it. A nice shot nonetheless. |

| If the sailboat is our main subject, I think it is overshadowd by the park benc and the tree. |

| To me the bench is more the subject of this photo than the sailboat because it is the main thing that grabs my attention. I didn’t even notice the sailboat at first until I had read the title and started looking for it. |

| I'm not buying the boat as the subject. Bench, yes. Boat, no. Sorry. I do like the image, though. |

| I don't know if I am just think of the challenge differently than others but the bench seems to be a stronger subject than the sail boat. Aside from the challenge it is a great photo!! |

| shift the camer a bit left and i'd like it better (lose the one tree at least, perhaps both and the distant land mass. |

| You know, many will debate the fact that you have one too many subjects in this image and while that is true they will ignore the fact that trees and bench are in the shadows. Well, I like this image because to me the boat is a dynamic subject because it is moving while everything else, except the water is still. A very good exposure and lovely colors to boot. Bumping up. |

| I like this image, but would find it more pleasing to the eye if the sailboat was a bit larger and more to the left fo the image. |

| Love the photo however I do not believe this meets the challenge. Is it the seat or the trees? |

| Beautiful shot, especially with how you used the lighting to make the trees and bench dark and the sailboat lit. Only thing I would have tried differently is to take the shot without the bench as the bench seems to be competing with the sailboat to be the strong point in the image. |
