Comment by Konador:
Composition: 10 - Spot on :)
Technical: 6 - The sky is great, but the colour of the water doesn't quite work for me, especially the blue parts nearer the horizon. The darks parts should be darker in my opinion, using levels, as they're not quite black at the moment.
Creativity: 6 - I've seen lots of similar shots before but the unique cloud patterns and colours make it stand out above the rest :)
Appeal: 7 - Very nice photo to look at, with just a couple of minor flaws.

Overall Calculated Average Score: 6

Simple, clean and elegent presentation of this sunset. The sailboat is a wonderful touch to the composition. The colors and hues and wonderful. Only two critques on this photo. There seems to be too much of a yellow tone to the hue of the water such that the majority of the water is a aqua-gold color rather than the normally accepted color we think of what water should be. Most of that is due to the stunning colors of the sunset reflecting on the water but I wonder if hue of the water is is due to playing with the color levels to bring out the sky. It worked beautifully for the sky but it just doesn't look right for the water. If levels were not adjusted then mayhap playing with aperature and shutter speed would get a different color result where the water is a deeper hue. Second critique is that having the sun evident in the shot would move it out of the good category and into the excellent category. That may not have been possible, for mother nature does not always grace us with what we want for our shots but I wonder if the sun was visible before or after this shot that it could have been incorporated for it.

Very nice composition, but seems a little too dark.

This shot tells a story! I like it! Makes me wonder why the owner didn't find a way to get it home. It makes me think, so I gove you a 9. Great scenery, too. Good job!

Very nice idea, but too dark. A bit too much foreground, also. More sky would have made it more interesting for me.
