Beautiful scene. Horizon is not level though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Lovely. The horizon appears tilted, though. I have an easy trick to level stuff. PM me if you're interested.

The water is stunning.

Nice sunset, pity the horizon isn't leveled.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 12:46:21 PM
Great horizon on this shot. The dark line really becomes an interesting element, although the darkness tapers off too much to murky at the far left. I would have cropped out the far three posts.

Beautiful sunset and nice framing. Have you considered doing a HDR for this photo? the pontoon and the beach could have revealed more details...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 11:41:18 PM
like the sky no jet trails very nice.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 08:43:09 PM
good composition for subject. I wish the foreground was a little lighter/more discernible to allow me 'into' the image.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 06:55:09 PM
Beautiful setting. The horizon angle is a bit off but still a nice shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 05:44:37 PM
Tranquil indeed, but also a bit bland... which in this case may not be a bad thing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 03:26:19 PM
Good shot but avg.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 11:53:46 AM
Good light in the sky, but the horizon is not level.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 11:50:17 AM
This seems a little to dark to me. The left side is distracting and that's where my eyes keep going.

Peaceful and quiet, although I prefer a straight horizon.
