I think this is a great idea, but I think that including the dock pole so close to the camera was a mistake. I really like the background of the pic and would love to see a version of this without the dock pole (I'm calling it that because I'm not sure what it's really called?).
I think it would've been better without the pole in the foreground. My attention is split between the pole and the sunset so it distracts from the sunset and almost feels like it's blocking my view. Also the fact that it was fill-flashed from straight on camera, makes it look almost like it was pasted in.
Nice shot, particularly like the detail in the foreground post. But... the orange line in the frame really spoils this for me as it distracts my eye from the subject.
Sunset is beautifully shot, but I think the photo would've been better if you did something with the pole. Maybe if it was straight and silhouetted? I'm sorry, but I find the pole a bit disturbing....
