Hi Jeff,
nice image framed a bit tight at the top, what is interesting is seeing the snow covered mountains so close to the sea and boat, here in Europe only Norway would offer such views.
Have a nice day JY

Jeff,
This is a nice shot of this fishing boat sitting high and dry. The lighting is the star of this shot providing a fantastic backdrop for the shot. The boat add nice color and contrast to the great scene of nature. The photo is sharp and has nice depth.
TFS,
Asa

Hi Jeff.
Amazing to see snow so close to the sea, especially in October. The shot is extremely sharp and colourful and the light is fantastic. Pity the top of the mountain is cut off in the top left corner. Rest of the shot is superb.
Regards,
Andrew

Hi Jeff,
Great shot, the boat against the mountains looks terrific.
Good sharp bright image, composition is good too.
I did a tiny workshop for you to look at, "spot the difference".
Cheers

Superb photo Jeff (even if Peter was right about the top of the mountain). The mix of water boat and snow work really well and I prefer the colour and definition of the mountains to more work on the shadows in the foreground.
