Poles are not adding anything as described below. However, I think the people are really what make this great. The expectation is that it is simply beautiful tree silouttes, until you look closely. I didn't vote on this image, but, my guess is it would have gotten a 6 or 7.
Best, |

Thanks for all the great comments everyone! Regarding the light and sign pole to the left, I guess I overlooked that and had I noticed it, would have probably cropped or cloned it out.
As for the colors, this is basically straight out of the camera with only a slight saturation boost. Agreed, the top feels a bit heavy but if I cropped out the overhead tree, I'd lost much contrast of the sky with the deeper blues towards the top. Same goes with focusing on the couple on the bench, I'd lose a lot of the dynamic colors of the fiery sunset had I singled them out.
Thanks again for all the constructive criticism! |

| I would have liked this better if you'd cropped the upper tree out of the frame and made it much more of a horizontal shot from the dark ground up into the pinkish section of the sky just above the palm trees. Just my take on it. |

| I really like the framing here. Unfortunately the sign and the lightpost out on the right detract from the shot. Could have been cloned? Good shot though :) |

| Great picture. It looks so tropical and lovely. The sky and water look a little bit oversaturated to my eye. However, they might actually be this color in tropical places - I live at 8000 ft. altitude and it's not very tropical here! |

| Very nice capture. I would Definately have cropped out the telephone pole on the left side... it takes away (just a tad) from the natural look of the scene. |

| Colors really pop. Top frame of the tree is a bit heavy, I want to remove the two human created poles. The people in the image are subtle but nice. |

| I am wondeing whether it would have been a stronger image if you had singled out the two persons on the bench with just on or two trees around them. But good image anyway. Gorgeous colors and good framing. |
