Summer Sunset

    If it was me, I’d have put the land at the bottom of the frame, cutting out most of the sea and including more sky as there’s way too much empty space in the bottom half. Might have been a different story if there had been a boat or something else of interest there but not as it is. Lovely warm colouring though.

    Thanks for the input Mark.

    I did like the track of the sunlight on the water. What do you think of this modified version?

    Exactly! :D Obviously you haven’t any extra sky but personally I think there’s no comparison – for me the reflected sun just wasn’t interesting enough to include all that water. Maybe someone else will have a different opinion though.

    Sorry Mark, but I prefer the first one (each to their own, I guess!!)

    For me the sunlight reflected on the water draws me towards the land and the fact that the water is so empty of traffic serves to give it a sort of meditative feel. :) It’s a very serene picture and if it was mine I’d have it printed so I could drift away into it whilst having a nice glass of red!!

    Beautiful colours too :)

    The first one is far better, that lovely golden glow of the water really adds to the image, more so than the sky.The second one is totally unbalanced…. to me anyway. Nice image !
