The usual sunset

I like the mood of this photo!

It maybe an ordinary sunset but the rider adds interest and relaxed feeling to it.

Really nice shot!

Nice!

Wonderful capture of the boy (?) on the donkey in the sunlight.

 

The rest of the image is probably a little unbalancend and very dark. You could use the curve tool to bring a little detail into those areas and see if it possibly improves the image.

I like the idea of the silhouette, but there's just too much dark space to really do it for me. Perfectly timed shot, however.

color seems weird

neat!

Beautiful shot. I would suggest withdrawing the border as it takes the eye away from the silhouette. Nice one. JB

bonne composition!

Great composition. Applied the 1/3 rule on the boy/horse and the horizion. Result was a very well balanced photo. Would have preferred without the slight blue tinge to the waves.

The person is a girl and not a boy; and she is riding an horse and not a donkey. But I guess it doesn't really matter. Just FYI.

Thanks for all your comments

It is interesting how others have responded to this one - all with valid discussion points. Personally, I like the "almost" monochromatic treatment and the cropping. I like the way some shoreline detail has been preserved in the large space to the right of the figure which leads the eye out of the frame to the right. I suspect that were this my image I would have tryed cropping the left side behind the horse and rider a little to see if it would accentuate the feeling of movement into the frame from left to right - but as a certain TV personality says, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong. Regards

This has the potential to be a really lovely picture. The subject matter is really nice, and I think the cropping is spot on, but the color is far too yellow and the overall tone is too dark for a sunset---I find sunsets to be more luminous. Keep up the excellent work!

nice sunset. perhaps u can try toning it sepia to see how it goes ?
