I like this a lot. The balance/composition is very pleasing.

At first look I'm thinking "to dark," but isn't that the point of the picture. NICE!

i dont really understand what is meant by balance, so i have just been looking at this as a free study, that being said, this is a pretty sunset shot, shame there was not some more detail in the foreground however

It seems as though the saturation may have been pushed a bit too much. I am seeing a bit of color banding above the sun and along the water. I like the composition, which feels quite IN balance too me. The heavy dark area on the right and the bright balls of sun seem to convey equal weight.

I like the title. The shot surely meets the Challenge Theme. On the minus side, the colors are just a tad too saturated for me, especially the red jacket which is blown out. You may have pulled it back a little with PS Selective Color, but it looks like data was lost. Certainly using Selective Color would have helped, though. The edge burn seems a too much, too. Not being an "expert", these are just observations that are, hopefully, helpful.

Nice sharpness to the photo, but I'm not finding much interest in it. Seems like you added the vignette effect to try to add interest, but I don't think it helped much. Sorry.
