I enjoy this imageand the way the light reflects off the clouds giving them a fringe of redish pink.

This has got to be one of the most beautiful sunsets I have seen! The colors in the sky are magnificent ,as is the reflection across the water.

Very beautiful sunset. Very interesting sky and I like how you waited until the sun was almost behind the clouds, but not quite. Compositionally the photo is a little dull, as if you might be relying too much on the sunset itself to make the photo.

This is great. The rocks really help set the depth of the shot. Great capture.

This has really great colour and contrast, I really like it. The sky is especially appealing, and teh rocks add other interest.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

could use a bit more contrast
 01/17/2006 11:23:31 AM
the foreground looks very washed-out/hazy a contrast layer adjustment to just the water beach and rocks would've really helped this image to pop over all. much like the sky does on its own.

wounderful color tones in the sky tho. good luck

Sunsets normally do not do well as they are a dime a dozen. But here you have captured a nice one. Good luck.

Seems a bit washed out. Nice photo otherwise.

Nice. Love the colours, hope they're natural or close, the sand and the rocks amd clouds let the sun to be the objecr of focus. 9/10 - would've been better without some of the grain and noise.
