Beautiful composition. The leading line works well to draw you right into the image, and the contrast, textures, and drama keep you looking. Good luck in the challenge! :)
I like this view of Hawaii :-) You only ever see the sunny bright photos. To see a storm brewing is rather refreshing! The path really draws my eye along the photo.
Nice leading lines, but the tones are a bit dull. I realize it is a shot at dusk, but there is very little life to the colors even for that. Perhaps a bit of a saturation boost would help? Still - 7.
