I think its awesome! I love the dark background and foreground and just a hint of water to show its actually in water and not setup in a studio somewhere...Colors of the boats are nice too.

The white boat appears a little washed out. Other than that, it's a great image!

Great picture! I don't know if I agree that the white boat looks washed out.

Nice colors, contrast, and composition.

These boats are washed out! They have sat in the sun's uv rays all summer and have faded.

Nice reflection of red boat in water. My preference would be that path in upper 1/3rd, red boat and its whole reflection in lower 2/3rd, no deal with white one!
