 This is the Indian River Lagoon. It is the major landmark for my area. A source of recreation and tourism, as well as a nursery for countless aquatic creatures. It is being systematically destroyed by toxic drainage from Lake Okechobee. This image probably won't do well because it is not an architectural landmark; but it is truly around my every corner.

I really like this shot. It is very expressive. My only criticism would be perhaps a crop so less of the black water in the foreground. Maybe a bump up on the saturation to bring out the colors in the sunset. Nice composition. The tree on the left gives it good perspective.

next time add some color to the sunset, this one is kind of non-spectacular. Just my view.
