I have just noticed that my comment from the other day is now GONE...?

That means that I have the pleasure of commenting on this imaginative idea and the great execution for this photo...again!
The colors certainly capture my attention quickly as I scan the thumbnails.
The placement of the silhouette draws you into the picture and the light seems to explode before your eyes.
It is amazing how so few colors, and select ones at that, can create such a dramatic effect.
This is a very simple photo, but one with that conveys emotion, strong emotion.
This will sell!
Very well done!
I enjoyed coming back to see it again!

For a few memories more that forty years I have chased Sunrises and Sunsets for my heart and for a living, and it is always nice to see a photo that is like looking in a mirror to see a memory, a very warm one.

Thanks!
Rohn

Magical effect and the frozen wave intensifies the surreal feeling of being alone in the universe... Nice one 8.

IMHO, the posterization is distracting and almost looks like a faux backdrop. Did NeatImage to this?

Ribbon worthy!!!

Gone a little too far with the saturation slider for my taste

Great waves! And the colors are very nice. Would possibly like different pose from the subject so as to see more of them.
