Beautiful twilight colors in the sky, fine details on the silohuette fisherman and his boat.
Fine exposure, great focus and nice angle.
I like the softness, the solitude and the beauty this evokes.
Nicely done Captain ;)

This has such a lovely mellow and peaceful vibe to it. Your composition also has an attractive balance. I like the soft colors and that the boat and fisherman show as silhouettes against the colors and appealing background shapes.

This is a lovely peaceful sunset scene! This is very well composed. Beautiful sunset colors and great silhouettes of the man, boat, and tree branches. Very well done!

Comment from Miranda Langston


wow! this is absolutely stunning. the rose pink and pastel blues and yellow is gorgeous and it's a nice touch that they sort of frame the other features in the photo. this one deserves six stars

Steve, a fine piece that is deserving of a wall mural...yes I said it.... a wall mural.

Like you find in a doctor's office. Peaceful setting that is sure to calm the most anxiety ridden individual.

beautiful colors and great piece.

What an interesting capture! The dark cloud at the left6 looks like a dragon spying fire. Its an fairytale in the sky supported by the sunset colors. The foreground in contradiction is pure reality. The person in the boat appears to be fishing, but might be enjoying the sunset also. The colors are beautiful. The warm and soft shades of color and the low light amplify the tranquil mood of the shot. The photo has an excellent depth. The composition is especially well framed and balanced

    Thank you so very much Cleo for your very artistic and insightful review. I never noticed the dark dragon spewing flame like colors. You have Such a gifted eye for such things. The boat is actually on shore and the man is cleaning the fish that he recently caught. Thank you for showing me details i had not previously noticed. Thank you especially for your Grand rating Cleo. Very much appreciated ~ Steve

Land man and God. What is one without the other. we are nothing without God.
A gorgeous peaceful almost prayer like image.
I love it. Serene in a quiet soft calm beauty created for us by Him.
All we have to do is appreciate and respect it.
The dark cloud above almost appears as an outstretched hand.
Leading me to believe if we need Him he is right there.We just have to reach out to feel and find him.
Beautiful......

    Oh my. Such a Spiritually inspired review Monica. We cannot see such things with our human eyes. Only with the eyes of the Soul can we perceive such beauty. It is a gift. You have the Gift, freely given to 'See'.

    Thank you for You being You Monica. It is a reminder to Me to return to those things that Really Matter.

    Thank you for Rewarding HIS work in this photo with such a Grand Rating ~ Steve

Nice capture. Love the sky colors and how the darkened areas of the landscape really make the photo pop. The man in the foreground with his boat adds nice interest to the shot. Well focused and lighting is good.

A beautiful shot that should make Dick Lee Shia envious. A well composed image with a strong silhouette in the foreground. I like the light in the clouds and the great colors.

    Funny you mention that about Dick. I was thinking of some of his great scenes when working on this one. He is the Master when it comes to silhouettes. Thanks Mike ~ Steve
