lonely as a...

Sunset at Lake Crescent, Olympic National Park, WA

I liked the layers of subtly-different blues of the receding ridges.

Seeking any and all advice and comments. Thanks in advance.

Nice layers and beautiful light. I like the simplicity of the composition and the overall graphic quality very much. No suggestions.

This is absolutely wonderful, the definition between the layers is magical. Very we'll done, :toast:

Beautiful image, Ronald. Love the deep blue layers and the gentle gradient in the sky.

The layers, contrasting colors, and simplicity are nice. Compositionally, the URC feels a bit empty. I'm just wondering if a square crop might work better with the clouds as they are situated :confused:

I cropped from the right and then a little from the left to keep the clouds just left of center. Any comments?

Nice layers and a simple composition. I might crop just a tad from the top. Works for me as-is, though.
