This is indeed a "Heavenly" sunset image,who but the Creator could have such a wonderful palette of hues to work from,with no two masterpieces alike. I like how the sunset colors reflect into the water with the reflections of the silhouetted trinity blending into an inky void where light and color can't escape. A peaceful scene that is well balanced and artfully composed,a perfect entry for the contest,Steve,I wish you all the best!

    Oh my. Such an artistic review and commentary LeeAnn. You point out things that I really had not noticed. I guess that is why I am artistically challenged ; )

    I so appreciate your insight and More than Generous rating LeeAnn ~ Steve

A beautiful image that captures the mood at the end of the day very well. The colors in the sky are excellent and they are well reflected on the water.

I have a feeling I have seen this photo before Steve, and I remember the text you have added. I could of course be wrong though, and this is indeed a beautiful and tranquil scene. I especially like the fine shine and reflections in the water, and the colors from the sunset are stunning.

The trees are standing out sharp and well defined against the background, and the exposure is just perfect.

The format and framing is very good, and by the way the trees are placed, it is a very good balance in the composition. A truly beautiful and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

    Thank you Annie. For a moment I thought I had messed up. You do remember a similar scene that included two trees in the water with an overall blue tone. It was called 'Meditation' and i had posted it on April 21, 2019. It is in my portfolio. The two photos were taken in the same area a day apart on Lake Chapala, MX.

    Good memory Annie. Thank you again for your review ~ Steve

I like this work because it is so classical in its concept and execution and in its atmosphere; The light, colour and the composition have worked well. Good effort!

This is so beautiful. The sunset is perfection, with it's reflection rising up from the calm still water. It is like our souls, with the Holy Spirit resting within us.

    When the Master paints and says "Share My works with my sheep" I become simply a servant. When the Spirit moves over the waters He leaves a wonderful sign of His Presence. Thank you my Spiritual Sister for your More than Generous rating. You do HIM Honor ~ Steve
