Very nice.  I like the effect with the sun.  I think I was at 
this place a couple of weeks ago, only it was on the 
Washington coast.  My only thought for improvement is 
to reduce the effect with the sun.

From rjhansen@hotbot.com:
The image does a good job of conveying mood.

From tony@j4tb.com:
Your water looks very nice especially the waves. The birds also look good. The
image gives me a cerene feeling the only think I would do is tone down the
atmostpheric refraction a tad.

From jd@surveyor.in-berlin.de:
The colors of the sky are reminding me on some sixties spotlight bubble
color effect filter.

From javaearl@hotmail.com:
Fantastic shadowy figure in the foreground, and great atmosphere (looks watery;
very cool.) Great flock of birds.

From warp@iki.fi:
Some vegetation could have done good to this image. Not too bad this way,
though.
The clouds look a bit unrealistic (should have highlighted and shadowed areas
according to the direction of the sun).
The concept is rather good.

I just don't know.. very "noise filter" textures.  Not that great..

From luisvaloyes@malditasea.zzn.com:
I specially like the beach, but the heads of the birds look a little strange.

From dmacisaacj@hotmail.com:
don't care for use of color, and such a fiery sunset is worthy of better
reflection in the water.

good job on a nice picture

From mark.wagner17@gte.net:
VERY nice job!

=====
From chris_hormann@gmx.de:
really beautiful interpretation, you should leave out the sun (it could be
below the horizon), everything else looks really good

=====
From jouni@mikrobitti.fi:
Artistic, if a bit bare. The sun is really odd, but it adds a lot to the
feeling
in the image. Well done, although I would've played a bit with the lighting
(even
if you said it's intended to be dark...). Well done with the plain text editor,
love that tool myself, too...

=====
From StephenF@whoever.com:
I like the mood of this one... it gives a very nice sense 
of quiet desolation.  The 'rippling sun' effect works well, 
and the birds look nice.  The sky seems a little blotchy 
in places.

From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
An almost-excellent image, but something strikes me as unreal.  Maybe it is 
the "modified pteranodons", particularly the closer one on the right.  Or 
maybe it is the not-quite-right color swirls in the salmon sky.

From albiaprime@aol.com:
Artistic - Very nice
Technical - The birds are very well done, as is the surf and the sun.
Concept - Wilderness doesn't come to mind.
