I love the silhouettes against the sky. The cloud comes down and seems to touch the earth. The gold reflecting in the water. The definitive line in the sky however just doesn't work for the shot. Keep it up!

a beautiful still and calming image. The lighting you captured is perfect....like the end of a perfect day or the beginning of a perfect day. you feel like you are actually in the sea looking at the island.

this is a beautiful snapshot. i like the darness of the tress and the cloud. because the cloud is dark, it reminds me of smoke, so it almost seems as if the trees are on fire

This almost has a fantasy feel to it with the way the light, reflecting off the lense the sun's vibrance descending, makes the picture look split. The outlining highlighting of light on the dark serpent like clouds to the upper left is awesome. That island sitting out in the midst of nowhere gives me an impression of something you would see on the front cover of a book, especially with the light cast ripples adding depth and dimension to the mood you set. I think this is a nice shot.

Heidi, this is certainly a beautiful scene, but the image appears to be split somehow. Perhaps that was intentional, but, if so, in my view it is unappealing with the "split" being too abrupt.
Peace, Papa

What a beautiful shot. The sunset behind the island trees is amazing and really beautiful, with amazing lighting and colors. It's a shame about the big black cloud on the left but we can't control the weather !! It's still a nice shot though.

Comment from Goya
I think this work is a professional one.
Interesting, but it looks as if devided into 2 vertically. I don't know wether it is a mistake or somehow you did it on purpose, but I find this interesting.

Cheers.
