 I was wondering if this is a good enough image to submit as competition is hard in Free Studies.
Finally , I thought it's worth to give it a chance (guess a score around 5.50 though).
It's a dream at least once in my life to explore as many places as possible in search of the mythical "El Dorado" in Latin America.
Don't want to find gold of course! Just to see, photograph and meet new people. In fact these things are more valuable than all the gold in Earth..
.. and this dream of mine is depicted here.

Love the dramatic colors and the tiny yet perfectly identifiable silhouette.

Dramatic picture in warm and nice colours. The darkness in the middle makes the sun and the boat stand out from the picture. Excellent camera work.

Beautiful capture of perfect solitude. Just wish there was a bit more space above the sun.
