Nice sharp and bright colours. In composition I think it falls a bit short. I've been to this location myself and I know you can't magically get just what you want. It would be nice if the woman's face was visible or looking towards you and the boat was perhaps further into the shot. As it is I find the empty space on the left is too filled with distractions. I think I would crop it half way and make a square shot or vertical. Just and idea that's all. Will show what I mean in a workshop post.

Hi John,
I think this photo is absolutely stunning! It has a nice relaxed feel to it and it is very strong technically as well. I suppose I do prefer the square crop of the workshop, but otherwise, the image it great. WELL DONE!!!

Hi there,
Nice focusing on a well placed left of frame subject.
The square crop works well.
Regards
Dave.

Lovely textures of cloth and water, not to mention the colour and scene itself. Beautiful picture, John.
