I like the simplicity of this shot, and, of course, the colours. I think we are all suckers for sunsets.

I think the sun is too central, and looking at the rest of the image, I think I'd like to see a version with the RHS cropped to about 2/3 or 3/4 from the right to the widest (top) orange flare. This would de-centralise the sun and only remove an area with not much happening.

Great colors and nice and dark, but a little to blurry for me.

Hi cpd

I agree with dab....the sun needs to be off center to increase the interest. See rule of thirds, etc. But don't let that deter you. This is a learning site, and you will do that.

Thank you for the input. Yes I am here to learn. Since this camera is just a couple of weeks old and it knows more about photgraphy than I do. LOL
