This is one of my personal favorite recent photographs that I would

like to submit to Adirondack Life magazine's annual photo contest. I

would appreciate a real critique that I can't get from my friends!

Jeff, this is a fun photograph. I do not know how well it would do in a contest but I see no reason why you shouldn’t give it a try. As far as a critique the only thing that is bothersome about the photograph is the excess area of gray on the bottom. I would be tempted to crop up to where the orange area on the right comes out of the right corner of the photograph. It is a photograph that offers numerous possibilities for manipulation—not saying you should do it this way but to give you an idea of what can be done when you want to play.
