I waited for the sun to set over Lake Erie. I was playing with white balance and set it to an indoor setting to remove most of the orange colors and wanted the deep blues that resulted. I know this would have been more interesting with a couple in it, but none were around.

This is a very pleasing image. The sun has a nice glow with some very interesting blue color lighting up the water. I think the long exposure gives the water a very nice soft feeling. How this image could be improved..... ,hmmmmmm... i am not sure. It DOES have light areas in the sky, but perhaps bringing out a little more detail in the water would have improved it a little. I do like the black shore line though. It creates a nice frame for the rest of the image and is a nice leading line. It could be seen as too tightly cropped perhaps, with the shore starting at the VERY corner of the image and going to the very edge of the other side... perhaps this creates some uneeded tension in the image... just some thoughts

Beautiful job! I wish my camera would allow me the pleasure.

This is the 53rd image I've seen, and the 11th with this title. The soft focus looks intentional, but I think that it would have been a stronger image if the focus was sharper.

Very pretty. Deep pastels. Nicely composed.

Nice colors. It seems just a touch out of focus.

this would have been better if your horizon was level.

Really sweet photo. The saturation, the lines, the silouhette effect, it all works. Nicely done. 10
