Hi..

To be honest, I find it a bit dark.. There doesn't seem to be any subject, and I think you've overdone the post-processing.

I think this sunset would have been better if you'd arranged your camera so you could have taken a longer exposure, closer to 1 or 2 seconds, using a tripod, and you might have got some reflections.

Can't see image or thumbnail. There's been a lot of that going on lately...

I can't see it either. Upload it somewhere else and display it here!

Hi guys

I don't know why you can't see the image (I don't have any problem with the image or thumb).

Here's another link, let's see if you manage to see this one.

I can see it now. I agree with Jon that is is dark and there is no real focal point that draws my eye. I'll say this before EOBeav does - it helps if you can add some foreground interest in your shot. It gives it image more depth and helps lead the viewer's eye into the shot. It's a decent shot now, but could be improved.
