Wow! This has an other worldly look to it like the ones we see on movies. Very well shot and presented in mixed media. Gorgeous colours. Good luck in the contest!

Very nice image for an I phone shot. Cells have come so far. Nice composition. Beautiful colored sunset. Love the waves crashing on rocks. Focus appears a little soft but still very nicely done.

It's a very beautiful scene showing the wonderful elements coming together , the warm gold and orange in the sky, the dark cloud in the upper right, the sun is getting ready to drop below the horizon, the rocky bank on the left and the rocks on the right bring texture, the waves crashing in over the rocks show the power of nature, I like the way the waves catch the light too! This is well focused, this image is clear, exposure is well managed, colors and tones are beautiful. I always am in awe standing at the edge of the water watching the waves. It reminds me how much power there is in nature and that it is always to be respected!

Hey Steve! Really nice work here! The sunset is great and catches the viewers eye. The purple foamy water in the foreground has nice color and gives the photo some great motion. The rocks provide framing and allows the viewers eye to travel from the sunset down to the water below. Nice job!
