Now this is lovely Albert and I can't begin to understand why 235 people have looked at this and not left their mark.

This is an evening shot that makes me feel as though I am there. It has superb clarity of the distant building, enticing lights stretching out across the water and foreground interest to give the picture depth and interest, leading the eye into the image.

One small point is that the flag on the ship in the foreground is a little distracting - I think I'd be tempted to clone it out in PP. I also think that a darker sky would have balanced the dark water to create an even more pleasing composition.

But these are minor points. Overall I've enjoyed this photo very much. Thanks.

Hey albert, I really like the photo its not quite dark yet we have the lights beautifully reflected on the water. i also like the boats in the foreground, they are a nice touch, however I think i woudl like to see a full boat, rather than these four boats all disected if you know what i mean.

Hola Albert, dando una vuelta por tu espacio veo que tienes unas fotos fantásticas pero pocos puntos. No sé cómo la gente no lo ve, a mí me gustan, de verdad. Esta de los barcos al anochecer es preciosa. Un abrazo.
