Comment from Kathy Banich
This is a wonderful image that draws me in initially with the sharp lines of the buildings that are reaching so prestigiously into the sky. The the foliage acts as a leading line to draw my attention to the boat and waterway. The image is tack sharp, natural in color and the exposure is well controlled. There is certainly a story to be told here.

A very interesting photograph here, showing the river flowing through the city. I see the weeping willows on the embankment, and the buildings high above the river. A very unusual setting. Good luck in the contest.

what a very cool scene. the angle of the shot of the boaters on this canal with the awesome greenery and buildings with partly cloudy sky blue is great. the capture of the light is great. the clarity is great. the presentation is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

Nice entry for this contest, the river is beautiful as it runs through the city, it's a nice day with a blue sky brought to life by the puffy white clouds, I like the foliage that lines the bank and the city structures.
Well focused, this image is clear and your exposure is correct.
Well composed allowing a good sense of this location along the river.
Well presented!
Best wishes to you in this contest!
