Happened to be in the Cape for my first challenge. Found this scene while frantically looking for a shot during last light of the day. Quite a bit of editing, not very sure of what I was doing but gave it a shot. Best sunset had a great back ground but too dark foreground. So added a layer with the brighter boats. Pretty sure I followed the rules. Any comments would be much appreciated.

I thought you're timing on this was excellent. I'm a sucker for a good landscape at dusk/dawn and finding one with a couple of boats to boot just made it all that much sweeter. :-) I love the color, and you did an excellent job on post-processing to bring the boats back.
Oh My! That's a striking sky! However, it tends to overpower the boats in the overall composition. A wee bit dark on the bottom half of the shot too. Still a striking pic. *6*
