The strengths of this composition are its framing, time of day capture and high technical quality. You did well to capture the sun without overexposure. The waves in this position adds greatly to the tranquil appeal of the scene. The clouds have nice tonality making it good for a B&W challenge. Kudos to you.
love this shot because the natural framing, the way the sun is illuminating the cloud formation and waves, the bird flying on the horizon. Very atmospheric
Oh man! What a GORGEOUS photo! The teeny tiny bird in the distance perfectly focused for me adds so much! This is really amazing! I tried to see if there was even one thing that would bring it down to a 9, but nope. It's flawless! 10
Photo's from this location (or similar) are always fun to look at. The natural frame obviously works quite well. The details are very good - sharp, well focused. The sky is perfect! Should do well with this. Good luck.
