 I captured this sunrise from the beach in front of my apartment. I did not do any editing of this picture. I like it the way it is, it shows the true colors of sunrise.

a pretty sunset - but the crop just seems too tight

Nice shot, I think the lack of cloud in the top half take away from the photo though (IMO), the sea and clouds around the sun have so much texture.

couple of technical points. Your sea horizon looks like it might need straightening and your clouds aren't sharp. Mind you, I expect that's tricky to get right on a boat (are you on a boat on this?) and I do love the colour of the sea and sky.

Wonderful sunset/sunrise! Could have used just a little color boost tho and the horizon is slightly tilted.

Need to level the horizon. Also, IMNSHO, the portrait orientation doesn't help the image. I think you'd be better with a square format or traditional landscape.
