Had this laying around since October so I thought I would enter it into the contest. Added a little softness to it. Let me know what you think!

A fabulous serene view to, what looks like, the end of a perfect day, Paul. Best of luck in the contest.

Paul - aka Mr. Sunset - The colors are most unusual, giving it a very different tone for a sunset. The silhouette of the shoreline on the left seem to be imposing on the rest of the scene (in my opinion), detracting a bit from the overall image. Thad

Best of luck in the contest! These are sunset colours you don't see every day. I like how everything in the image flows into one point on the horizon. Good work!

I think good old Mom nature has been short changing me in the sunset sky department, that's what I'm thinking :D
Wonderful colours and reflection, terrific sunset view. Best of luck in the contest.

Makes me think that Oregon has one of those multicolored things that you spin in their sky Paul. An excellent contest entry.

I gave this one a high mark in the voting booth because it has such an unusual appeal. I love the color although it doesn't look natural. Did you reverse the color tones or??? It's a striking image with the silhouette to the left and the way the sky color creates a sort of v shape leading the eye from the dark into the light. Very effective. Nice lowered horizon line. I don't know about the softening - I just love the whole image. Well done! anne =D

Critiquing art of any kind is utterly subjective. When I vote on your images, I look at several things. First, my initial gut reaction. Then, is it straight (if it should be); is the color correct or if intentionally saturated or desaturated, was it done properly and does it enhance the image; composition - if you intended a bulls-eye, unless it's an outstanding image that is really served by centering the subject, it'll get dinged; is the horizon dead center - again, unless there's an obvious reason that makes it a better photo, no points; is the subject interesting and uncluttered; is the image sharp; is the depth of field right for this composition, is there a catchlight in the creature's eye; would I hang this on my wall; is it an image I'd be proud to display; is it artistic or just a snapshot; does it move me; is there a message conveyed; is it documentary in nature and if so, does it tell the story in such a way it makes me want more. When I critique a photo in your gallery, I'm only suggesting what my subjective nature prefers. No need to defend your position if you like your image the way it is. If you give me constructive criticism on my pieces, I guarantee you I will take them to heart. I love to improve! Bring it on Caedians! Love, anne =D
