Any comments or improvements?

Well the verticals worked better here. I can't figure out why, but this one doesn't hold my attention nearly as well as that other composition. It's still a beautiful work.

I love vivid colors in photography. The colors and composition in this photo are very nice.

Technically it seems very good, but I feel the composition could be improved. Very nice sharpness and dark blacks.

Nice colorful scene with excellent detail here. I have looked at both this and the other similar version. I almost think a combination of the two might work best AJ. In this one I like how you have included more of the wet sand. The reflections allow for more of those pleasant tones in this scene and over-all it has a richer appearance in my opinion. However, I also agree with others that the composition could be improved here. To me, you are just a bit too far to the left. I would like to see the bridge at more of an angle (like it is in the other photo). It would give some added lines that make it appear just a little more dramatic. However, I also think THAT one needs a bit more of the foreground sand to balance the scene just a bit more, as well as enhance the tones. Over-all, still a very nice capture. Keep up the good work! ...Aloha.

Thanks to all for the constructive comments. That is why I am here.

 

I feel very passionate about this picture as it is one of my best. Now I have a few more ideas (thanks to all of you) in my head about how to improve this capture. My progression has been pretty interesting since getting into photography over the last year. Getting comfortable with my equipment was my first hurdle, learning basic exposure principles was next and now I am trying to incorporate composition into my pictures. I really dont think there is a right way or a wrong way, but I have no way and that is what I am working on.

 

Again, many thanks and please check back soon.

 

 

Thanks again for your advice.
