    just love the colour of the water! the shot would be much improved IMHO by adding a bit of canvas left and right, just feels a bit tight around the edges.

    A little more room would be great but this is a very nice image. I really like the layers, the color contrasts, and the placement of the rock and chairs. The layers are essentially quarters of the image, so maybe mixing it up a bit by cropping some of the sky might be nice.

    Pauls got it right on all counts. More room on the left and right would have made this perfect.

    Hi Jose,
    You use layers very effectively here and I also agree on a bit more room....but for me I am OK with the right .....just more on the left......about equal. I suspect there were more chairs in that direction so you had to choose a place to cut it off. The light may be a bit bright for me but you did capture the feel of summer quite nicely.

    I also like this image with its layers and summer feel though I agree there needed to be a bit more room on the left.

    Another thought I would like to add is that the depth of field seems to be a bit shallow for an image of this type. By limiting the depth of field to the foreground you are focusing the attention on the group of rocks and I feel it needs to be extended throughout all the layers in the photograph.

    Really quality feedback. I have to agree on more room :-)
    Roman , you´re right, more chairs on the left.
    Richard, you're right also. I think a complete DOF (bigger f stop) would compliment better the image.
    This kind of feedback really makes you think about what yo did, so you can improve in similar situations.
    Thanks all!
