 Only one sunset to get it right, wife nagging me to fix dinner, I was a bit rushed. Oh well, it is what it is, enjoy.

Nice scene overall, but I gave this an average score. I think it could have been improved in two ways:
- Start the main subject from a corner instead of just offset. I believe that simple change would actually make a big impact on perspective
- Balance the light from the flash a bit better with the ambient light. This is especially true for the color, the flash is just too cool in comparison to the warm sunset.

Strange and oddly tragic yet beautiful. Interesting image.

the tall plant in the background is very distracting - it really takes away from the nice soft colors
