What hurt you the most for scoring in this challenge is this isn't really what most would consider "high contrast". If you look at a histogram of this picture in Photoshop, you'll see a fairly nice spread across the board, with no significant peaks/valleys. Yes, the high constrast of the sun on the water at the point where the island is does define the island, but that's a small portion of the picture so the overall impact is not one of high contrast. As for the lens flare, I kinda like it. Looks a bit like the moon, though it is recognizable as a flare. An adjustment of 50% in the shadows using the shadows/highlight tool in Photoshop really brings out the colors and textures in the foreground. |

I don't really see how this has anything to do with contrast, and there's a water mark from your lense at the top of the photo |

I think the colors could be pushed a tiny bit more to get them to really contrast. |

I'm not seeing much high contrast here. |
