Nice sunset shot even though the colors are not as vibrant as you might have wanted. I like the separation of the closer land from the mountains in the background. IMHO just a bit top heavy with sky compared to the water at the base. All it needs is a point-of-interest to keep one's eye in the frame. Thanks for sharing it with us.

I agree with Clockdoc about it maybe being a little sky heavy... Maybe if the waterline (where the water meets the mountains in the back ground) was placed a little closer to the lower third...

Clockdoc, Mappleby.

Thank you. While I agree that there is much sky, the focus of this picture was the wisp of clouds in the center. I experimented with cropping the top, but those wispy clouds were my focus and thus left it alone.
