Hi Janine,

Me again, as a Critique Club commenter... The color palette is lovely and the sense of horizontal layering of subject and color change works well together. I think it's really hard to nail a sunset that doesn't get a sort of "meh" reaction here, though. We see so many that they tend to lose impact. I know that's true for me. I become hyper critical of them because they're so common. Most tend to be highly saturated with exaggerated colors. Perhaps this is in lieu of dramatic subject interest. Your photo has several layers of interest including the dog and walker, yet they are small and lack real impact. It might be improved somewhat by lightening the bottom (dark sand) layer to reveal a bit more detail in the shadows. For me the best thing here is the violet shading at the top and the gradient changes moving down through the golden yellows of the wet sand.
