Hi all,

I am new to this website and also fairly new to photography and would love any comments and feedback you can give me.

Cheers,
Scott

PS. I did upload this photo in a different category but realize now it was in the wrong one, so that is why i am posting in here

Welcome to DPS and taking the step of posting an image for critique. You may get a better response if you follow the Critique Forum Rules.

Just a couple of things about your image. Generally one does not want the horizon to split the middle of the frame. Google Rule of Thirds to learn more. Your horizon is lower on the camera right. I'm sure you can straighten it in your editing software.

Could you have waited out the sunset to see what colors you may have gotten as the sun hit the horizon and gone lower?

Not knowing the settings you used limits any other feedback I can give. Hopefully the more experienced will chime in once you fix your post.

Always ok for DPS users to critique and edit my photos for instructional purposes.
