Nice composition. The subtle reflection of buildings at the top of the photo give it a context and the reflected gray sky works well as a background for the colors of the canoes.

I keep coming back to look at this photo. You could have shot this in so many different ways (as i would have!) but somehow you shot it this way. It's just a great composition with perfect colors and tones.

Thank you all for your kind comments and encouraging words Smile
I find it often difficult to explain why I shot a picture in this or that way, in this case I made a few different shots but liked this one more because the canoes span across the frame like a fan and because the one shot from directly above was less dynamic or maybe less interesting with a weaker reflection...
Regards,

Fantastic capture Igor. As I was browsing the gallery this one just jumped out. The way the smaller canoes fan out from the larger one is captivating. Just a really great photo!

Like your composition. How my eyes travel in a circular motion and stopping at each boat. I like how the reflection in the water compliments the image.

Thank you for your kind comment, the credit goes to the guy who arranged and tied up the boats in such a nice fashion, I only photographed them.
