Object variety is lacking... barnacles, moss, maybe a seashell or two?

From pbourke@swin.edu.au:
Good colouring with the red and blue, nice reflections.
I guess I didn't like the rocks.

From luisvaloyes@malditasea.zzn.com:
very good to be one of your first images, the sun is really cool...

=====
From panthus@xtra.co.nz:
Great composition. The water maybe less blue and more clear?

Too Reddish!!

Nice water.  Needed something else....

From tony@j4tb.com:
Most of your image is realistic and textures look good. The only part that needs work is the clouds. They are a little too red and the light patterning doesn't seem right in them.

From bbowen@cswnet.com:
I've never seen clouds quite that red... except in armegeddon pics. . . but this is too peaceful for armegeddon. Nice.

From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com:
The sun definitely looks unreal and the clouds are not quite there.
The sea looks pretty good.
Again lack of distant fog.

From jrcsurvey@aol.com:
The story and the picture makes me think of Munch.  So I will interpret the=20=
clouds as expressive.

From StephenF@whoever.com:
Kind of a pretty scene.  The rock formations look good, 
although they might benefit from a different texture.  The 
clouds have some dark blotches which could stand to 
be cleared up.  Nice sun.

From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk:
This is a great image and very sentimental.  But I think you've killed it with
ambient light or something.  I've tried darkening it but it still looks wrong,
maybe you've just got a lot of ambient in the texture of the rocks or something.

From delfeld@mailcity.com:
Ok, so it is a meaningful scene to you. . . what interest do I have in it, either visually or thematically?  What can I gain from the image?

Congratulations! Perhaps there could have been more light from behind the camera; the rocks have a flat illumination to them that distracts my eye. The sparkles on the water are nice.
