I really like this photo, and chose to

describe this one because of the

way the boats are dark in the front,

and the buildings have lots of lights

in the back round. I also think it is

cool how the boats reflect on to the

water. It seems like the

photographer took the picture from

about the same level as the water.

I like how the lights brighten up the

buildings in the back round, and

somewhat shine on the end of the

boats. What I do not like about this

particular picture is the sky. It is

some what blurry around the edges

of the buildings. What I would

change about it would be to take the

picture at an earlier time in the day.

Maybe about a couple hours earlier

before it gets dark. Probably

around sunset. The center of

interest in this photo is the boats

along with the posts they are tied up

to. This photo does a good job of

contrasting the dark versus the light.

It shows the bright buildings, and

they are probably part of a busy city

night. But it also shows the dark

boats, along with the calm water.

The bright lights and buildings, the

dark boats, and the cool calm water,

are all reasons why this is probably
