I'm not really sure how I feel about this photo. The bottom half seems really bright, overly so actually, and the top looks morbidly dark, almost evil.
The more I look at it, the more it seems to me that it just doesn't work together. The beach is beautiful, really nice scene there. The mountain is fascinating, really nice with the fog...the the 2 together isn't cutting it as one image.
I wish I could clarify that more, since it's not really making much sense even to me, but I hope you get what I'm trying to say.
Focus and clarity are good. I like the waves in the water, but I think that the bottom being so bright kind of washes away some of the detail in the waves that I'd like to see. See how the edge of the water is just white? Would like to have seen a bit more of that I think.
Overall, some interesting parts that just don't seem to quite go together.

| WOW! Having lived on Kauai for a number of years, I can attest to it's many faces. I haven't seen many pictures that capture it's beauty, warmth and mystique so effortlessly. Great job! |

| The near-square composition works for this shot, I think. It's not a particularly dpc-type landscape, being only un-obviously processed, but it's nevertheless effective. It perhaps suffers a little from division of subject: is the tonality of the beach and the shallow water, or the mountain and the cloud, the primary point of your shot? That's not necessarily a bad thing, though it does make the shot a lot more complicated to view (again, not a bad thing), but in dpc terms I think you'll suffer for it - had you concentrated more solidly on one or the other, you'd score higher, I think. I'm not sure that I wouldn't personally prefer a more organised hierarchy of interest, either. |

| the bottom half of this image looks over exposed to me, and I am left wondering how that was acheived when the top half looks so much better |
