Really pretty shot. Obviously the colors are fantastic and your work to this piece really sets them apart. I am having a tough time with the overall composition. For one, this is a photograph and that canvas look is really poor for presentation purposes. On the other hand, had you simply ran this piece through a watercolor or matisse effect prior to that canvas effect this piece would have made a FANTASTIC art-decco inspired print. I think it still would have been better served simply being printed on actual canvas material though. Either way it doesn't look too shabby, at least not enough to lower the overall quality of the composition. But be aware that I am not the only one who may question this.

Other than these little complaints (I call them that, but in the end I really do like the result of the canvas texture) this is really quite a pretty photograph. The balance is really good. There is a fantastic bit of contrast between the clouds and their highlights, and the silhouetted images and the light/reflections behind them. You have really dark tones and really light tones and they meet well - great contrast. All in all this is really an eye catching piece, and I think that is more important than anything. I think it is missing too much detail to be that "over-the-top," "outstandingly stunning" photograph... but other than that this picture is about as good as they get.

    The photo is nice, but I had to do some mixed media for the contest..I didn't think to use an effect first..and will certainly keep that in mindfor the next contest!! Thanksso much!

    Hey, that being the case you did a masterful job. I do not like the canvas effect; I think it looks better if the texture is real. But that having been said this piece looks really good. Texture and all. I am really divided here.

Excellent technique here trying to make this photo look like a painting. The center of interest is very good and the color harmony works very well. Overall very nice shot!

Pretty amazing sky and the colors are stunning! The cloud cover is wow and the sunlight coming though parts of the clouds add to the scene! Awesome reflections and your timing was perfect to get this image! Best of luck in the contest!

A very nice and very dramatic composition. Your settings have certainly worked well in creating some great colours in this sunrise. The use of your filters has also been a good success. Great all-round photo!
