Beautiful coloration in the sunset that is so vast and large. I like the perspective of the boat to the large mountains.

Looks otherworldly. Congratulations! I absolutely love this. It looks like a scene straight out of a Hollywood movie, like Wonder Woman or Thor.

Not exactly related to this shot, but when it comes to your expert editing skills, and with all due respect to our masters here, I honestly thought no one else comes close to gyaban until I saw your (DQ'd) submissions and what you can do with images. Though yours is more painting-like compared to him which is live-action-like.

Without wanting to meddle in anything and it's not my business 🙈, I just hope everything works out and we can mend things with our beloved and lovely Admins and SQ, and that you decide to continue joining the challenges while keeping track of your process and evidence. Your work is something I always look forward to seeing.

I am conflicted about this. the scene has its own weight and dynamic. The sailboat is almost a fly in the ointment. but impressive.

I can see that you have chosen your composition to include the sailing boat in the foreground, but for me the balance is off. All the interest - and Oh there is bags of it - is in the top half. If the photo had just a sliver of sea it would be a 9 from, but somewhat harshly, perhaps, as presented it is a 7 for me.

Subtle coloring, Immense sea, tiny sailboat
