I like this photo for many reasons. Although there are contrasting colors in the photograph, I feel like they all work together to fit this piece together. All of the colors are different, but in a way they are all the same and nothing is really sticking out. It almost looks unsaturated and has a dark or mysterious feeling in it. There are no people visible, but then there are human made objects, boats. Out of all the properties in this photo, I feel like we are drawn to those light brown boats, and yet the board walk which brings you towards the water, than brings you to the mountains, and later the sky. Also this photo has a calm and peaceful feeling with it. There isn't a lot going on. The shapes and reflections in the water also bring a lot of focus and movement. Lastly, it almost seems like there is no sun, or that it is a cloudy day. Theres no sun or sun set/rise drawing the people's eye.
Although this picture could possibly look symmetrical, there could be an argument for it being asymmetrical. The different amount of boats on either side of the board walk makes it non symmetrical, and the different mountain shapes/ ruffles in the water make in non symmetrical as well. However, there is very much a balance in this photo. You are not drawn to either side of the picture. There could also be an argument of unity and variety. Based on color, this photo could be unity, but based on texture, this photograph would be variety. The emphasis on this photo could be the boats because of their brighter colors and because of it being a man made object in a photo of all natural objects. Since there does not seem like there is much movement, the shutter speed would have been fast, not letting it blur.
