I would not relate this to anything fantasy world related if it wasn't for the title. Nice photo of a sunset.

Beautiful gradiant in the sunset. I just wish that it tied more closely to the theme. If I go with your title of Atlantis, to make it fit in, I can't imagine there being a shore with trees that close to the remnants of a destroyed civilization. But I'll give the benefit of the doubt. 6

Comment by Artifacts:
The darkened bacground against the lighted performer will be understood by most voters as meeting the darkness challenge. The detail in the darked area is visible but not enough to identify exactly what is going on there and tends to draw the eye away from the main subject. This will be interpreted as distracting by some viewers. Especially distracting is the blue dot in the center. You might consider making some or more of the darkeened area brighter to show what is back there or make it totally black all together to remove it as a distraction.

The general image quality of your main subject is not especially good. Colors seem oversaturated and the focus is very soft. This will likely lower your overall score.

Neat capture - I personally would prefer the image without the blur of the arm - but as I learned with this challenge, it is hard to do in low light.

This is a picture with darkness in it, but does "darkness" really mean a guy riding a unicycle on a tightrope to you. I guess I don't much get it.

The slight motion blur adds to the effect. Nice use of the frame to convey motion as well.
