Seascape for C&C

[spacefuzz]

There were beautiful sunsets over the weekend and this was one of the images I ended up with. Hoping I could get your (brutally honest) feedback. I was trying for a S curve style leading line with the sun and waterfall at the third lines. Not sure if the flare from the sun is too much. What do you think?

That looks like less than half a second to me, but I could be wrong. Anyway, technically a solid shot. I might crop about half the sky off the top as it doesn't really add anything and the extra blobs of clear sky in the corners tends to lead my eye out of the frame. I do see your s-curve but it's not enough to make this a 'hanger' for me. The waterfall that is the subject is in shade and not that impressive. I am more interested in the glint of light coming off the rocks in the lower left corner. Not a bad attempt though... looks like you put thought and effort into it. :thumbup:
