This is very well composed and of course the subject is captivating. It looks as though it was processed HDR - I can see a bit of a halo around each of the mittens. (Assuming I'm correct) if you process this with high smoothing you can get the full dynamic range without the halos.

Thanks for looking.

This is very well done. Good balance between the foreground, reflection and that sky!

Beautiful composition colors and textures. Love those rocks!

Well composed, perfect exposure, beautiful colors.

Well composed, dramatic

Truly beautiful, intriguing image. A meteor trail?

Dramatic, beautiful. The aurora fairly jumps out of the image.

Strong composition. Lots of energy in the sky and water, with the hole in the clouds playing against the rock in the surf. I personally don't find the white surf to be blown out - still has some detail.

Great light and color. Almost looks like an underwater image.

Nice composition and perfect cold gray tones. The tree framing works very well, especially against the background trees fading into the distance.

Beautiful colors and composition. I think that the negative space of all that sky adds to the composition (though still a great image without it, just different). Can't really say where horizontal would be, but I don't get a gestalt of tipping one way or the other.

Strong composition, especially the v of the foreground rocks mirroring the v of the cloud shapes. The color seems a bit off to me though and the reflection of light on the sand is more blown out on my monitor than it needs to be.

Well composed. Love the cool blues. Maybe would like to see more of the less- blue tree on the left as a stronger contrast to the rest of the image.

I love your aurora images in general, they are really well done, but this one stands out for having a bit of a scary almost ghostlike aggressive quality to it.
