I believe People who vote ( not talking about the people who have entered) tend to go for the classical Professional type of photo.
It is a competition after all, and that's what sticks in ones mind.
As it is a competition, people have some expectations.
I believe that the 'Challenge Theme' is an important criteria ( even though it is not a rule).
Interpretation of the theme is the thing that makes the comp interesting.
But if the picture is random (as nice as it may be )......ohhh nooo here I go ...please accept my apologies ......the pic from Chris (Omaroo) is not (I believe)of a seascape. It is a very nice pic - of a dude fishing ....with a wave about to wipe him out....mmmmmm....that is the focal point....not a seascape.......
Getting back to Leon's point,
criticizing somebody's pic is a hard thing to do , complementing is easier ........

I feel this is too harsh a comment on 'Omaroo's image,Personally I feel its the best one there!I hardly notice the fisherman,I see a perfectly captured sea scene,I'll get brick bats for saying this.
