I'd like to thank everyone for their comments. I've been having trouble with color profiles and losing my colors when I save for web. I was using this photo to do some testing before the beach challenge because I wanted to make sure my submission wouldn't look horrible. I thought for sure I clicked the UNSUBMIT PHOTO button. Guess not. Well, good thing I'm not hung up on my average vote received score...

DNMC for abstract food. As a scenic, focus is soft - colors need a bit more saturation - image is flat and lacks a subject of interest. Try shooting landscapes in the landscape mode when going for just the scenery.
although this is a well-taken photo and the color may be a "feast for the eyes" or "food for the soul", I think this is too out of the box to do well. Good luck, anyway!
This, I fear, abstracts food beyond the breaking point. Also I hate what the fuzzy shrubs in the foreground do to an otherwise uncluttered abstract of sea and sky that, while being nothing very remarkable would be something I could enjoyl looking at for a few moments. I love the cloud..
