This has a feeling of sadness about it, like something forgotten and lost. I love the tranquil tones and the even light. Beautiful shot.

What a pretty place to sit and watch the water and daydream about the distant islands. Great tone, lovely shot.

Wonderful capture! Beautiful and soft colours. It almost is a surrealistic shot!!! The rocks with the bush and the branches look great in the foreground, makes the picture look very special!!! Well done!

Nice capture. However, I don't really care for the border. I would suggest doing a thin line of white around the inner part and then a thick black border. (the white to set off the border since you have some dark areas near the sides of the picture)
That's just my suggestion

If the purpose of the picture were simply the sunset, perhaps I could agree that the branches were a distraction. In this case, however, I think the branches almost become the very point of the picture, at least to me.
I see in it something living, reaching for the last moments of life-giving sustenance. Almost a desperation to it, really.
If they weren't there, it would be just another pretty sunset picture like countless others in here.

Thanks for the comment I really appreciate it...and yes actually I decide to include the branches there...I could just zoom in for the sunset if I didn't wanted it right?
Those branches seems attracted and wanted to reach for that mountain in the background..that's what the whole photo is all about...at least for me
One silly mistake I made is that I forgot about the plastic bands...it's a heat of the moment thing...

meh - it happens... maybe edit it to make them a more neutral, less noticable color. Otherwise, I love it as it is.

very nice - lovely mood!
would have left out the twigs in the foreground...
they're distracting... especially the coloured bands holding them together.
takes away from the natural, pristene feel.

just my two cents...
gives the shot more peace, imo.

this is perfectly beautiful, despite the plastic on the bottom. Else from this, this picture is very peaceful, I like that.

this is very good, although i find the branches, and especially the red and blue ties very distracticting, and they don't really fit this picture

Hmm yeah the red and blue ties are somewhat distracting, thanks for the critique I appreciate it
