Trading Post - A very pretty shot here. Nice colors in the sunset. The blues could have been saturated maybe a bit more but overall nice colors. I think if you had gotten a bit lower when taking the pic you may have gotten a better silhouette of the mom. The girl is nice against the water but the mom is kind of hidden a bit much in the sand and the surf. Overall good shot and it looks like you caight the sunset at the right time.

I love the rich colour and interesting contrasts in this photograph, plus you've captured a spectacular sunset. The shadow figures create a nice emotive feeling to this, and their solitude on the beach is very appealing.

Trading post...
Another great addition to your front page. I like the silhouettes and the brilliant sunset. I can also relate to this picture, since I have kids who also never want to leave the beach. Very well done.

You're on a roll - two new additions to your top row in one week, and good scores on both of them! This shot is one of the benefits of living in Hawaii, no doubt. Lovely colors in the sunset and nice positioning to get the rays from the clouds. I like how you have the horizon very nearly centered, yet the other elements of the picture balance that out nicely. The use of silhouettes over preserving considerable detail in the people serves this picture very well. Nice job!

I love the rays of the sunset. Very pretty. And I love the "just one more" idea.

Pretty sunset and it is great to see other subjects in the image. To make it better, I would have moved down closer to the water and put the kids nearer the sunset. But still very nice!

This would be a great photo if it wasn't over-sharpened. You can see white lines around the people.

great sunset and a good title...perhaps a better perspective, getting down lower, changing the horizon position woyld have made this stronger

beautiful! especially the light rays and backlighting at the clouds. nice subject matter too though it seems to be competeing for attention with that dramatic sunset in the background.
