Thank you for your comments! I came upon this at the Austin Dragon Boat Races, and would have loved to catch them going over, but had a tree between me and them when that happened!

The crop is good in my opinion. I think maby you could have made the water more appealing with some contrast or levels. A fun picture. Hope no one got hurt :) Good luck.

i have to ask - was this posed? =)

Timing is everything! Did you just luck out by being at the righ place at the right time? Or did you have reason to think this shot would be there?

Was this in Austin? Nice photo but would have been better if you got them right when it started to tip.

What a good capture as this shot definitely looks candid... marks for that for sure.

Wow! I've done a little Dragon Boating and I didn't find that the boat was all that unstable. Quite the capture!
