sheesh...thats a mighty fine image, looks better in the thumbnail, but still a cracking one nonetheless. The only fault i can see is the tilted horizon and the little bit of chopped off headland on the left side. The dynamic range here is excellent too and it looks very natural.

I love the scenery, quite a lot in fact. it's such a beautiful place I could easily imagine going there myself someday; which is at least one of the points of a travel type photo. I am split about the person in the frame. Although I can it for giving a sense of scale to the setting and for including a traveling companion, I also think the plain, static nature of their stance tend to detract from the photo, to me. The landscaping is so breathtaking I don't like anything competing for my attention. Thanks for sharing.

I have to agree that the land touching the LHS of the picture is a slight distraction from a classic landscape composition. You may want to clone it out with a bit of sea replacing it

I very much like the photo and the inclusion of the woman looking into the scene. If possible, I prefer that the point of land at left not touch the frame edge. TFS. Bill

Hi, Robert! You captured well the beautiful evening colours. The landscape is brilliant, the steamy air gives a photo a pleasant mood. The model makes the picture more dinamic. Nicely done, it's a 3TU! Thanks for showing! BLeP_i
