    Default So Stoked and Unexpected

    I actually took second place in the Colored-Projected Beginner section of the competition last night of my local camera club...so unexpected. My first time shooting in true blue sky conditions.

    The image was titled "Moored for the Night" and it's score was 81.67

    Thanks Ricardo and still unexpected. The image could have technically been better. It was also suggested that a crop would help. Guessing that would be on the left-hand side.
