a beautiful picture, but there is dirt in the background. it sort of looks like excessive sensor dust? not sure, but it is very distracting.

Nice moment. Unfortunately the horizon is skew and the sky is dirty.
To be honest, the water line is just one degree leaning, that is quite OK, so it is mainly an unpleasant feeling.

Very classic. Shame about the gulls though.

Great composition. It's hard to tell if those are birds in the sky or dust.

Either there are lots of birds in the air or it's time to give the lens a dusting off. I'll give the benefit of doubt and go with birds.

very cute shot, the sun between them definitely adds to it, looks like there might've been dust on the lens or something (towards the sky....)

if the silhouette were just a liiittle darker! I like the location of the sun! The birds in the background (I think) are a bit distracting.

too much sensor dust - you may want to clean your sensor before your next shoot. The horizon could use some straightening. As for the position of the sun - it would have been perfect had you gotten the models to steps up on someting to make the sun be between their hearts in my mind. These are just my suggestions - please do not allow them to upset you.

I love the sun between the two people but I think if they were more centred, and the photo more symmetrical, it would be more pleasing.

The sloped horizon bugs me, but I love the way the sun is captured between the 2 of them.

very powerful image. if this were advanced editing, this photo would slay. still deserves a good score though, despite the dust junk in the sky. -7
