Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi Shutterbug...

"As I walked out one evening,
Walking down Bristol Street,
The crowds upon the pavement
Were fields of harvest wheat.

And down by the brimming river
I heard a lover sing
Under an arch of the railway:
'Love has no ending.'"

- beginning of "As I walked Out One Evening" by W.H. Auden"

I dunno why I thought of this poem when I saw this photo. I guess it was just fresh in my mind, so I thought I would share :)

The minor glint of sun still visible on the horizon really makes this photo pop nicely... I wonder if you managed to get a few more of it earlier in its setting cycle? It's a beautiful shot.. the cloud illumination is beautiful.

The detail visible in the foreground water is also just perfect for this shot. The only minor modifications I would suggest for this would be to give it a minor rotation to the left to level up the horizon just a bit. It also would possibly be an improvement to crop off some of the black space along the bottom of the shot. Ultimately, it could have been impressive to remove that part of the image by composing with the camera a little differently and include some more of the beautiful light in the sky :)

Keep up the good work :)

Where in the world is it summer right now? Spring in the north, fall in the south... OK sunset shot, but it's pretty dirty (spots) and noisy.
