Hi Ryno!
I like this photo for its structure and light. The refelction in the water is well conserved and the contrasted sky is really awesome and well worked.
The off center palace is a good choice cause the eyes follow the river till reaching its borders. it would have been more accomplished if the women reflection was entire.
Anyway great moment.
Regards,
Clémence

the horizon placed just in the third
the diagonal of the perspective
it's perfect, although we can't see all the reflection of the woman

Ryno,
This a very fine photo! Your composition is great using the waterway to create a diagonal that leads the eye into the scene. The woman in the boat add a nice point of interest in the foreground. The reflection adds depth and balance to the scene. The lighting and colors are great and the photo has excellent sharpness.
TFS,
Asa

Terrific composition! the direction of the boat gave the photo a story! love the water textures too.. the halo over the houses can probably fixed to improve the photo... but still terrific job! well done... TFS

hi Ryno,
well composed with the boat on the left-down corner, following the canal to the temples on the right-up of the picture. a diagonal that makes the dynamism of the scene.
nice soft light.

Hi Ryno: This is an amazing shot where the lady in the rowing boat perfectly anchored in the frame balances well with the striking temple. Lovely details captured in stunning clarity and depth. Well done and best regards. Jusni
