Greetings from the Critique Club Evelynne!
Great capture for this challenge and not too bad a score. Focus and sharpness are nice and the huge spray helps to make this shot. I also like the boat's position on the left side of the image. A couple of things that might've grabbed you a better score are:
The foreground grass/weeds are very distracting. Not sure if you need any foreground in this shot at all. You're camera has exposed the white water as gray so you'll need to adjust this in post processing to make the white explode in the image. Colors are pretty flat so I'd hit it with some saturation and see what you come up with.
You really started out at a disadvatage because of the ugly overcast so you made a decent save.
Overall a great effort. Keep'em coming!
Thanks for the opportunity to critique this image Evelynne.
Cheers - Phil |

| Great capture; I'm not sure that the shoreline adds to the image, though. |

| Nice action shot. The colors seem a bit flat, perhaps a levels adjustment would brighten it up a bit? |

| A little flat - try making the spray whiter using levels (or equivalent) and the picture has a lot more "pop" to it. Composition is good. |

| this shot has potential. the weeds in the foreground are extremely distracting, and the toning needs work. composition is great. you can practically feel them sliding across the water. |

| Well done. You couldn't have asked for a better angle on these two...with that huge spray. |

| Nice motion capture, your colors could use more punch. Increased saturation cold help add more interest. |

| Works well for a sports shot, even smaller boating magazines. |

| Nice action shot - the spray of the water makes for a good background, and the boat is well frozen. The grey day takes away a little from the excitement of the shot, and the foreground weeds are a little distracting, but overall a nice shot... |
