Go bitch about the blue ribbon winner will you? Thanks. Leave me alone.

Looks like a lovely place to be right about now :) (is the horizon a little tilted?) :p

I know it's probably the angle of the photo but the lopsided horizon really spoils this great picture!

great colours...it's hard to tell if it's a road or the sea, so I had to look hard, but that might just be me

Wow. Yet another photo that proves that not all sunsets are created equal . . . well, OK, perhaps this is just evidence that not everyone sees the same thing in a sunset. You've imparted action and interest to this image by turning the camera some and also hiding the element that most people expect to see in a sunset, namely, the sun. This photo implies the sun and takes advantage of the golden hues to create a lovely tone across the whole image so that I believe the viewer is invited to remember not a specific locale but memories of his/her sunsets at the end of the day out around the water. Love the camera tilt on this image, too. Looks like a little bit of banding around some parts of the sunset.

I'm sorry but if the horizon is not flat, I feel sick. Beautiful colors and composition. I'd have tried to find a way to flatten the horizon, love the little boat onthe junction of the 1/3ds.

I would have preferred this shot with a flat horizon.

I guess the tilt is intentional. doesn't really work for me. I like the colors and the sky though

Could just be my computer but it looks a bit on the dark side. I like the angles though and the color met the challenge.

Great Job!

Tilted horizons can work! Love how you tied in the shoreline with the tilt of the boat. Great capture.
