Sunset at low tide

[Supergenius]

Nobody comes to Seattle for the beaches, but there's one near our house. Here's a photo from low tide a few weeks ago. I was thinking about cropping out much of the lower 1/3, but I like the water effects down there. Some white balance tweaking and image rotation in Lightroom, but no other PP. Any thoughts? How could I have done this better? Just the regular kit lens on this one, no telephoto.

Please don't crop the bottom, it's the best bit! It has good leading lines into your shot and the play of light on the wet sand is lovely. The whole pic looks just right to me, the colours and comp are great. I wouldn't change, you've done a good job.

If you crop uot the bottom, it will become another sunset amongst others.
I like it the way it is, unique with all the reclections and rocks and sand.

great shot.

The colors and the composition are great. The only thing I would change: There is a spot in the top right of the corner, probably a bird. I would clone it out.

Nice shot
