I like this shot. THe water and the sky are deep blue. The only thing I do not like about the picture are the electric wires.
Hon, I so hate trying to find some shots without crap like this. I searched for a position whilst I was on the Port to find a way to shoot without some disturbing background or foreground stuff. Actually the foreground are the Anchor Ropes lashing our shipping vessel to the stanchions, I probably could have climbed on a rooftop or stretched out lying down, but with Homeland security and Customs running around, I didn't chance it.
Well, it is good enough, considering the yacht, the deep blue water and sky. You are right, you do not risk anything even for a good shot, unless your profession is that of a photographer. Other than that the picture is well taken, don't worry.
