A yatch in Auckland

Keep in mind, selective coloring will draw attention there. Given the title, you were aiming for the yacht, but I'm distracted by the flag (btw, you missed coloring part of it). Looking at the yacht, I want to see the whole mast included. I understand that, given the location, one more step back could mean your camera gets a bath, but that's what I'm missing.

You've got a pretty vicious tilt in the thing which doesn't seem to be contributing much, but does make things confusing. Boats do tip, so seeing it tipped makes us wonder why. But this boat is not tipped.

The details on the transom are all lost in the darkness. You haven't got enough depth of field to render the boat sharp, and you haven't opened up enough to make it clear that you didn't want to, so it just looks sloppy. The background isn't much to look at, but there's not much you can do about that. Selective color also not doing much for me. Why the flag? What's important about the flag?

The sky is pretty nice.

I disagree with deeky about the mast, mostly because I have a pretty good idea how high the mast goes and I see that it would make the boat rather small. This seems to be about the boat's big butt, and as such, it's a pretty good perspective.

thank you for your comments guys. I was aiming for a big butt of the yatch and also the country's flag. It explains the identity of yacth belong to that flag. I guess the flag is not the NZ's flag. on the other hand, about the mast, I had a fence in front of me when taking that picture. If i step backwards it would show the fence not the big butt. In addition, I didnt have wide angles filter to cover the mast. but I appreciate your comments guys. Many thanks.
