I like the candid feel to this image of people mingling, the beach scene and explosion of color are 'wow' to me- beautiful and amazing! the sun looks like an eye winking closed...while the sky above is touched with whites yellows, oranges, reds, pinks and even darker shades that border on rose and black... its beautiful thank u for sharing it

I saw the thumbnail and got excited, however the full image is a little disappointing. Would have preferred no people of one (the child) or maybe two (i.e. a couple). The image seems grainy and the processing is bleaching sections of the sky. If there was not people, I may have lowered the horizon a little more to capture additonal sky. The B&W border is not necessary when you are trying to emphasize the rich yellows and oranges IMO. Good Luck. 6.

Good use of diagonals and the colours in the sky are beautiful. However, there seems to be some haloing around the people, maybe a little heavy handed on the sharpening.

I would have cropped out the individuals. They enhance the weakness in the image. Still, the sky is magnificent.
