Anchor River Sunset is a nice shot. My only complaint is the two fishermen are too centered. The photo of the grayling is good, but the fish's eyes and the fly reel are competing for attention at opposite corners of the photo. I'd submit those two for the fly fishing category.

One other thing: sunset photos are a little played-out. You're really going to have to come up with something really unique to impress the judges as far as a sunset shot.

Keep at it Max. And you might want to think about investing in a tripod.

for the fly fishing eal, pick your first and third, maybe even crop the first a bit to better show the fisherman.
