Hood Canal Sunset


Photo By: Landon Cross
I took this picture when I was at hood canal on new years. I was trying to get the reflection of the sky and I think I did an alright job for how the water was. Anyways tell me what you think.

I think this picture could have been improved. First of all, the line of symmetry is crooked. I think that if the camera had been tilted to where the water line was horizontal, it would be better. I like the idea of having the water reflect the sky. I wish the colors were a little more brighter or vibrant. I think this picture is relaxing. There is a dot in the middle of the picture which is kind of distracting. But overall it is a good picture.

This a beautiful picture. I love the colors and the reflection on the water. I would clone stamp out the black dot in the middle (a duck or goose perhaps?). The only thing I don't like about this picture is that the horizon is off center. I would crop it and rotate it. With that being said, this is still a great shot.

I like how the picture isn't very bright. And how the reflection looks (reflecting the sky) I think it is making the picture blend real well. I just wish the picture was a little more striaght.

I really like this picture. It really is something to look at. The color and reflection of the water is amazing and i love how there is a line going across the water it really give it dept of field. I really like this picture you did an amazing job!

I really like the feel of this picture. The Sunrise/Sunset is really nice with the clouds drowning out the normal colors. As others have said though the line of symmetry is a little off, but that is easily fixable in photoshop. I would also consider turning the saturation up a little bit to bring some color back. With a little work this shot could go from a good shot to a great shot

This photo is interesting. The contrasting colors of the sky and the water. I'm not sure about the line through the middle but over all I like the composition of the picture with the trees in the background.

I love the shot, you probably got the perfect lighting for this subject. It has that real soft texture and has a good reflection. I think you should rotate it to make the horizon line straight horizontal. You could lighten the lake reflection as well to bring out some more of the color but the water texture contrasting with that uber soft cloud texture is cool. I like the black dot, or boat perhaps. It adds to the thought behind the picture and it lets you think more about it and wonder.

Beautiful setting and amazing colors! it would help the overall composition a LOT if you straightened the image... that horizon line is really crooked. also if you got rid of the black speck in the water (i'm guessing its a buoy?) it would make the reflection look really nice.
