Ok, call me surprised. I really thought this picture would have done a lot better. Nice pic Brad! To me, it looked the the people were actually "stare(ing) at the sun"

I think this one probably suffered from "I'm sick of stare_at_the_sun entries!" LOL Most were pretty good. I gave this a 5 partly cuz I was sick of, well you know, and partly because it was a little busy at the bottom. :)

Kinda busy - Where do you want me to look? Right at the sun?

For me, rather than the sun being a focal point, my eyes keep getting drawn back towards the people and the foreground as I find those areas of your photo more visually interesting.

The different level of brightness and tones of the silhouettes in this shot are great.

Beautiful colors....It's hard to take pics directly into the sun, I think you did a great job here. Great composition also...the only thing I would've liked to see different is for the bike rack to be gone, but I think that is jsut a minor detail. Great picture overall.
