Very unusual shape of the palm, almost 90 degrees. The sky is very beautiful what with the play of the orange browns and the shades blues. I would have prefered a bit more contrast in the sky and over all brightening of the mids and the shadows. Overall a very picturesque shot.

Whats with that palm tree? It’s crooked. Nice sky and water. The sand is a little dark.

Thats some pretty picture. That palm-tree looks like it bent down to pose into camera or just to check out the sunset. I like the shot. I want to be that palm tree… =)

It is wonderful to see everyone’s appreciation of this gorgeous creation, this fleetingly beautiful world we have been given to treasure. Let us treasure it, shall we? You’ve done very well, but you have to know you caught quite a vision that day.

The sky is great and the colors in it are lovely. I like the composition, but I think the shay parts of the picture a little bit too dark.

A little bit of a cliche but maybe the cloud formation makes up for it…
