Nice capture of the fisherman amongst the Fall foilage. You've got depth, clarity, texture, variaty of soft and bold colors. I like this image very much. Good job and good luck in the contest!

He certainly seems to be in his element. Good shot. I love that this feels as if you can feel the motion of the water. Great clarity, composition and focus. Nice job. Thank you for sharing.

nice framing of the shot with the seeds in the foreground and the trees on the background, yet, I would prefer to see the boat and the fisherman better since they are the main subject

thanks for sharing

Aptly captured for the contest theme...
An interesting initial impact.
A bright sunny day with fine features & textures.
Pin sharp focusing.
Good perspective & long depth of field...
Visually balanced composition.
Verdant foreground & backdrop.
Best of luck in the contest! Thanks for sharing...

Hi and thank you for entering this contest.

I love the story element of your upload....it feels calm, quiet, serene and makes me wish I could be there too.

The reeds in the front are an excellent addition because it makes us feel like we are witnessing a scene, sneaking a peak.

Well composed, sharp dof, richly saturated yet muted aumtumnal colours, and oh so peaceful.

Pretty as a picture :-)

Nice capture. The clarity is great
The angle of the shot of dude in boat is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Great eye and great job overall

You have indeed captured this man fishing well, and I think this is a fine entry into this contest. I especially like how you were shooting through the reeds because it adds both interest and depth to the photo. I do however find the very pale sky a bit distracting. It is not really necessary to see it all, and personally I would have cropped the top of the photo.

Your photo is nice and sharp and it is really clear and well defined details to be seen all over. I also think the exposure is fine, and I like the nice and natural colors.

The photo is nicely framed and the boat has got a fine placement off to the right. I think this is a lovely and well taken photo, and with a very good DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

Thank you Annie... I think you are quite right about the crop. Thanks for the tip

I can see that you did the cropping, and I think the photo looks better like this. You are more than welcome for the review.
