    Rolling In

    A tad cliched, but what do you guys think? I'm not sure if I captured the reflection correctly, the sun seems a bit burnt out. Any suggestions? Also, is the crop ok or would you suggest a little less cloud?

    Feel free to edit/re-post my photos as you like

    echoback,

    The subject(a sunset) is a hard picture to capture and make interesting, there are a lot of attempted pics of sunsets.

    The sort of triangle shaped sky in between the water and the clouds is quite weird to look at, i dont think i've ever seen a sky line like that before. The colors have some potential, maybe a tad bit gray? The pic also seems to be a bit un level, and my eye keeps getting pulled to what looks to be a spec of dust in the bottom left corner.(I'm not mean I promise)

    Is this the original? If not could you post it?

    Flyer, thanks for the comments! don't worry i don't think you are mean. I wasn't too sure what I could do with this photo to make it look better, so that's why I posted it. I was hoping for some good constructive criticism. :thumbsup:

    Anyway, this is the original, I haven't done anything to it yet. Wanted to get reactions first. The speck of dust in the left hand corner is a bird I think. This was taken at sunset on Lake Erie. I see what you mean about it being slightly unlevel. I'll try to see if I can fix that. Also, the skyline is a bit wierd because there was a storm cloud rolling in, and it hadn't quite reached the sun yet. Any other suggestions for color? Would you get rid of the blue sky in at the top of the photo?

    Thanks again!

    ~Sam
