Love the foreboding look on this one and the way the dark cloud makes the orange cast look strange and unsettling.

Wow, a great composition and ominous clouds.....you have all sorts of stuff crammed into this frame. a sunset, background mtns, waves, people, foreground tree sihouette and on top of it all a dark cloud threatening to ruin it all! Super shot......and by the way congrats on your fast approaching 1000th post!

Oooo, awesome composition! I love how there is both simplicity in the few simple colors, and busyness with all the different elements captured here - tree, clouds, water, waves, mountains, people! It all ties in perfectly.

wow!..simply stunning..very nice composition..the color is very basic but the silhouettes made this one special..the people down the beach seemed oblivious to the foreboding look on the heavy clouds..catching the last glimmer of the sun..sunsets and beach are really relaxing..
