I probably should have just cloned out the boat, but at least in the larger view you can actually tell it's a boat.
Acadia National Park, ME

Michael, I like this composition, and it's a unique view of Acadia. The sky is very nice, and I also like the red and blue palette. It looks like parts of the sky are darker, and the light-to-dark transition appears to follow the backward L of the spire to land to horizon. Was this a blend? I might try to even that out a bit, and possibly bring up the darks in the shadow of the spire.

This turned out rather nicely and is a view not many people see when visiting Acadia, Mike. The combination of warm and cool colors work beautifully together and those clouds are flat out awesome. My only suggestion would be to try and bring out a little detail in the shadows on the monument. I am going to have to give this a try and see if I can make it down there the next time we are in Acadia.
