Hi from the CC Club!

This looks like it was an amazing sunset.

1st impressions are that the colours are stunning, but your shot is very centered. I actually like centered shots, but this does seem to be cut straight in the middle. Show a little more water or sky so it isn't so. There is a lot of grain showing also.

In Post processing, a little bit of burning of those clouds would give them just a little more depth.

I look forward to seeing some more of your sunsets!

colours are nice, but the composition is too central and bland and there is no real focal point 5

I really like the colors and textures with the dividing line on the horizon... Interesting take on the subject as a portrait rather than the normal landscape sunset.

nice colors , unfortunately it will probably be underrated in a FS. These isn't enough interest to captivate the voters in a FS (no vote)
