Comment by Maverick:
The ripples in the water add a nice texture to this shot. There are three elements that draw my attention: the sky, the rock, and the water. As the water is the most unique element in the shot, I'd like to see a crop wherein the water occupies the bottom 2/3 of the shot, or a horizon more biased to either the top or bottom of the frame. If the rock was dead center, it would play well with the vertical symmetry. That said, this is a lovely subject. The moon and its reflection are nice touches as well.

I love this mix of purple and blue... even the moon is reflected on the beach! It really is a shot I have not seen before (in terms of colors and waterscapes), and I gave it a 9. Good luck!

Amazing light. Cool image. Straight horizon, perhaps a little too centered but it is difficult to say what should be cropped, sky or sand ?? 9.

Comment by Skip:
while this is an absolutely beautiful image, i think it would be much stronger without the moon and the moon's reflection. they are a distraction that forces my eye away from Haystack Rock, rather than letting my eye wander, leisurely absorbing the rich colors and textures you have captured. it's amazing how something that small can have such a strong impact on someone's viewing experience.

Very cool colors, I like the composition. I would have composed it in a portrait orientation with that big rock in the top left of the frame. (9)

Comment by scalvert:
Frameworthy hues and good DOF. One of the best landscapes in the group. I might have cropped with the horizon a little higher or lower for a more asymmetrical composition.

I love it. I don't know what could be imroved. Probably the quality suffered during resizing, but I love the coulors, the composition, everything. I only wish the moon (?) wasn't so blurry - but it's probably due to resizing process, as I said earlier.
