You rated that portrait a 5/10 for the reason "thing in background is distracting"
I think I just choked a little. That is by far one of the best portraits in this thread, let alone the entire forum.
I think this plain, simple, boring photo of a tent with 2 chairs lacks" interestingess", focal point and fails to show any technical considerations taken into consideration when it was shot.
You could have even boosted the contrast in Photoshop to make it at least somewhat appealing.
Sorry if this comes off harsh, but you just rated one of the best portraits I've seen in this forum in a while a 5/10, and then posted rubbish.
1/10.

agreed, his photo is just a greyish mess if you ask me, and that portrait was kinda nice ^^
Now to your pic, I really think that soft water adds badly together with such a harsch detailed background.
Still I do like the details, but I would have tried a faster shutter.
6/10
