Already during the challenge this shot reminded me of a boat I used as a kid during a vacation in Sweden (1984 I think). It was at Enviken, in the Dalarna area. It was brand new at the time and it had the profile of this boat.
I had a great time with it, this photo reminded me of that. I hope it wasn't this boat. :-)
Love your country, I have been there eight times now and will return! ;) |

The boat looks like it has been there so long that it belongs. I came real close to marking it down because the historic value makes it miss the topic of garbage. Good job. Autool |

Gorgeous lighting and textures. This would probably look excellent in black and white as well (I'm sure lots of people have said that), but I do like the colours here. They're very soft and subtle, and give it the right kind of weatherbeaten look. 10 - lisae |

there is a lot you can do with these boat photos but i am not sure looking down at it is that effective, maybe have it in context with the water might be better. 7 paganini |

nice shot! I really like how it is still on the waters edge. kind of like people wanting to be burried somewhere that they really loved, or in a place that meant something to them. The little weeds are a nice touch. Garbage without being unpleasant to look at. Ver nice shot. angle and framing/cropping are excelent. The lighting conditions are great, and the surrounds are really beautiful. Excelent. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~ |

Nice framing. Nice textures. Very good try at finding an interesting subject with the current theme. Framing ould be improved to make the photo more dynamic. Great effort though. 7/10 |

Very nice picture, I like everything about it. Where is it taken? Somewhere in the Northeast? Or around the Great Lakes? Seen some places in Maine that look like that... |

Increase contrast in this one to separate the grey of the boat from the grey of the rocks. Good composition, though. |

Terrific shot - the thumbnail made it look like a whole boat. Rather cool. OI bet the weather made the picture a little grey. I can't fault you for that, there is only so much you can do in a week... This is one of my favorites this week. (9) MarkRob |

This is very nice. Definitely tells a story. I am thinking that perhaps if it wasn't cropped so tightly that it may even be more appealing. I love seeing the texture of the wood. |

Color, sharpness, exposure, subject, texture. What does this photo not have?! If this is not in the top3, something is wrong. Excellent job! |

One of the best this week. I really like the 'dead' look feel of it which adds to the overall feeling. Great job. |

You found a great subject for the shot. However, the picture seems a little faded and bland with no strong colors. Maybe a lower perspective could have included some blue water or sky. A sunset in the bg would be great also. I would go back, if possible, and take more shots of this great find. ~indigo997 |

Good Photo, however, I do not see this as "garbage"! |

This is an excellent shot... The boat seems to be framed fairly tight here... I wonder if it would have been possible to maintain a vertical shot and open up some space to the left of the boat? great work... = 10 - setzler |

Beautiful photo. I like the many different tones of gray that you were able to achieve even though it's a color photo. Very nice. |

Good Idea, and good subject matter but I think a different angle and less centered could have made this an exceptional photo. =7 syamjonimi ;'-D |

Nice subject matter. Composition might be experimented with. Another angle might be more striking. |
