Great project image! I like the placement in the frame, neat blue water with subtle ripples. I make take some off the top for a more balance ratio.
Thanks for being part of the project!
Its a WOW shot. I would like to see it printed huge. I'm not sure about cropping off the top. I like the extra bit of lighter blue along the top left. Cropping into the dark band makes it less interesting to me.
Soft, contemplative, nice reflection and colors.
Since the feather is relatively small in the frame, its placement right on the rule of thirds intersection works well for me. It makes me think of a ship sailing out to sea.
