Quiet Evening On The Coast
This was taken Friday night on the Washington Coast. Although not a very dramatic image i did like the cloud pattern and the simplicity of the image. I am not sure what I could have done to make this work. There was no sunset showing but a late showing of some pinks. I realize that some will not like the cool magneta colors but I tried several different versions but this came out the best without the clouds above the haystack being blown out more then they are already are
Thanks in advace for any comments or suggestions !

Canon 5D

Nice Shot Kevin. I like the way the clouds radiate outwards from the haystack.

Ditto on Dave's comments, the radiating clouds makes the shot. Composition wise, I might have tried placing the foreground rock a bit more toward the right.

I second what Joe said...of course, it can be moved without too much effort.

Thank for the advice I will move the rock more to the right - Thank you for the advice

The colors look good to me. I like that the haystack is not silhouetted and you can still make out detail in it.

Nice colors and the radiating clouds make up for the shot
