I have never received so many comments on a picture.

I have read the DPC tutorial on straightening a horizon....I pledge to keep my horizon's straight from now on!

The horizon is crooked. I don't know if it was intentional. It probably would have looked better either straight or drastically unlevel. It is kind of in between. Too bad, it is a lovely scene!

If only the horizon wasn't skew...

horizon is not straight.....sorry, but its a nice picture, you need to correct such in your fav photo editing software..

Straightening the horizon, cropping out the person and perhaps cropping out the table at the fore, makes a much better (and nice) image, in my opinion..

nice evening sky, but the glare around the sun seems unnatural...the horizon seems to tilt the way you took this with the shoreline disappearing to the left

Straighten, straighten, straighten.

Nice lines from the palm trees, which lead the eye up and down the photo.

I like the colours and the silhouette effect, but the skew horizon hurts.

your horizon is tilted a bit. ...wish i was on that beach.

Oh no...not the dreaded tilted horizon! Other than that, beautiful shot.

Interesting Photo. Watch the horizon tilt. Odd title, since it is one or the other, Maybe "Sunrise or Sunset?" was what you had in mind.

The vertical line below the sun takes away from the picture for me, but still beautiful

maybe making the suns reflection a little slimmer could help. that light glow really makes it hard to look at the sun without looking down at it

Seems a bit weird because the horizon is not horizontal. A slight clockwise rotation might have helped.

Nice, needs a touch of contrast though
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful color and composition. The horizon not being level with the bottom of the photo really detracts from the shot.

the tilted trees are a bit annoying , ther wise it is one of the best so far

Beautiful... if only that horizon was level...

The picture is nicely composed, but the focus towards the top is a bit soft.

love the palm trees and the sunset

The tilted horizon is a bit distracting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Its really crooked! That really bigs me... palm tress are cool, as is the sun. 6

I don't like the crop, the horizon diverges from the beach at an odd angle from the trees. I like the framing of the sun, maybe cropping the far left and the man.

no excuse for a tilted horizon :P
