*Critique Club*

I drew this photo for critique and it somehow didn't get critiqued, so here I am for that critique.
The very first thing I notice about this photo is the right tilt of the background. Makes everything look like it's going to slide off the edge of the world. I wonder if there was a way to straighten up the background, yet still have the window from angled? I think it would be possible, just play around with angles and perspectives.
About the perspective aspect, is this really a creative perspective? I do think that it's a different type of shot, and I like the way it's shot through the window, but I'm just not so sure there is a special perspective that adds to the photo. If you take the definition of perspective as just a way of looking at something, then sure, works for me. lol. Does that make any sense?
Focus and clarity look awesome. I love the detail in the front boat and the houses.
The reflections in the water are not as crisp focus probably due to some ripples in the water, but I think that adds to the photo, not distracts.
Colors are very nice. Wish the boat were a bit brighter lit. The way this is set up, the background seems like just that, a background element, because it is so small in relation to the big picture. The boat seems like it would be more considered a main focal point, yet we don't really see much of the boat.
A good photo of a lovely view. ~Heather~

When my eyes first saw this I automatically tilted my head counter-clockwise to "straighten out" the photo in my mind. What a nice view you have though. I like the lighting on the background buildings.
