I have a feeling you all are going to score this low because of the size. I am bummed that I couldn't make it bigger than this. If you notice it is 640 long.

I love this shot and plan to hang it in my house with a frame.

I just noticed I didn't answer this comment.

This is what the colors looked like that night. It was amazing! Sunsets have to be my favorite. I cropped it because I didn't care for all the land at the top. It made a nice print for my wall.

Thanks!

I rarely comment after a challenge, but I have to on this one. It's awesome. The colors are fantastic and the size is a nice change from the typical 640x480, and more important, it WORKS GREAT with this particular subject, etc.

Wow Sonja. I never would have expected this was yours. It's not in the style I usually recognize as yours. This is a stunning image. I gave it a 10. Keep experimenting please!

Very beautiful colors and nice composition. It's a shame there isn't more to see of the water reflections, this tight horizontal format almost teases the eyes... which want to see more! :-)

Though the pic is a bit on the small side, I just love the colors in it, so surreal!

Very, very nice. The small vertical crop is bound to be held against you, but it works and I can not see that it would with a larger crop. The colors are great.

Lovely, moody silhouette. I like the look of it very much - like a watercolor painting.

very nice. I really like the soft focus here, adds a bit of fairy tale-esque type feeling. Lovely reflected colours off the water, good composition & use of the rule of thirds.

Smooth composition. The light colors makes the photo. The unusual framing works well here. 8

This is a great shot and the duck silhouettes are perfect but think you have maybe cropped too much off the top.

Colors are VERY effectice. Slim Jim framing is great for the image. Birds are well placed and have a nice relationship.
