The colour is magnificant! :shock: :shock: :shock: 8)

I am not sure bout the foreground, I may crop out the blue at the bottom, I am not sure if it is a tad busy there. My $.02.

Thanks for sharing!
Griffin.

I like the shot as a whole especially the sweet light, gigo! :roll:
Would clone out those specks although it will be a task in itself. Would also shave off a little from top until you hit the bright band of light ...

I agree with KK's crop suggestion, but leave the foreground alone. Minor alteration Daniel... also like it as is! :) :)

Very nice, Daniel. I like the color gradation from bottom to top.

Very nice Daniel. I like the colors changing from top to bottom in the water. Looks like you need to clean your sensor. :wink: :mrgreen:

All elements are in place for a great photo. Making the height 346 px, cutting off the top, would complete the job.

gigo,

This is pretty nice. I think I would crop of the solid dark bar accross the top make it more of a pano.

Thanks,
Bob Wright

Gigo:

Great potential here, I would clone the left upper corner to the right upper corner to homogeneize the BG.

Great colors and great pose - they almost look like camels trekking across the desert.

I think a pano crop might work, too.

This is really nice Gigo. I especially like the colors. My only wish would be for cleaner water.
