This was a last minute attempt to find something from my trip that I shot for this challenge, (suitable enough, in other words).
I chose this one, and i hope everyone likes it, and doesn't hate it cause of the colour-changing, editing job, the original colours were kinda flat.
Anyway, thanks alot,
Simon

I like the subject and framing, but I think the lighting on the shore is a bit too bright, and the border's too wide. Otherwise it's a shot for National Geographic.
I like the use of light on the stones while keeping the sky in its maybe sunset/sunrise state. I think a little different angle on the rocks so they seem to be coming mainly out of the lower left corner would add a direction for the eyes to follow out to the sky. Nice framing as well...good luck.
