    Re: Cabo sunset

    On the second picture I would crop off the bottom section starting from the bottom left side up to the point that you reach the shine from the water on the sand. Next I would crop off the top from near the top of the black cloud up to the top of the frame. Doing this would eliminate all the black empty space at the bottom and the empty blue area on the top, Jeff

    I agree on the crop suggested above. Very nice scene mate.

    Great stuff. Agree with the others on the crop, I think.

    Colors in the first are stunning. Very much so. And the graphic design of the shot is good. I don't care for hyper-sillouhette though. But you should feel free to not care what I care for. I am in the minority.

    Hmm. Colors are amazing, esp on the first image. While it's not as sharp as it could be, I think the color palette makes up for that. I think the 2nd shot is good also but the composition is probably too vertically centered with too equal amts of negative space. With that pic, it's a toss up if you crop some off the bottom or the top.

    I love color - so I'm happy! (I do think #2 would benefit with some top and bottom crop)
