Hey there from the Critique Club

Congrats on the top 40 finish. You really have some nice work in your portfolio, and this one is no exception. You have a crisply focused, nicely colored image. I do think that the sun itself is a bit too centered, but not enough to drop a point in voting. I think that the fishermen are just a bit too small, and increasing their size would really increase the impact of this photo. The various horizontal lines work well to carry the viewers' eyes up the "steps" of the photograph. Nicely seen and well captured.

Such a shame there are no sailors in the picture - would have meant so much more. Lovely sunset and the silhouetted fishermen do add to the shot.

Great colour, and the fishermen really add a lot of interest to what would otherwise be "another sunset photo," albeit a very pretty one.

Wow. That's a lot of color (in a good way). I like the sense of a "second horizon" created by the rocks it really widens the image. Too bad you weren't lucky enough to have a sailboat passing by at just that moment. ;-) Nice job.

Beautiful! The fishermen are placed wonderfully - without them it would be hard to define the land. Good job!

very nice color tones. greta composition. Breaking the rule of thirds works for this image. 8.

I like the people on the left of this shot.. and the rays coming from the sun are quite nice... I wonder if the rule of thirds would have made it an even better composition?
