Thee colors here are great! I think this is the case of too much foreground and not enough sky. This was an easy 6 in my books ;) Great finish. My first ever challenge score was a 4.3 so don't feel bad :) You got some talent :)

Good exposure, colors and composition. For a longer exposure challenge it might have been nice to make it even longer to show motion in the river and some voters will nix you for it claiming it looks like an "ordinary" picture.

Nice shot, gave it a 6, feel as there is something missing in the shot, like the main part of this photo is the river according to the composition and it´s just too dark and has nothing on it of interest.
