Default Aruba Sunset

Here is a sunset picture I took in Aruba - January 2008. I am as amateur a photographer as they come, but thought I snapped a fairly decent shot with this one. Any comments and criticisms are welcome!

I looks good except for the reflection of the sun off the lense on the left. I'm certainly not an expert but one stop or so higher might have been better.

You really need to re-size your image to 800x600 and clone out the sun image on the post - but well done with the exposure

That's better but you could take a little more off the top.

I'd be tempted to make it a square because the top clouds are a bit distracting.
It's a nice photo to see in the winter.

Great job with the cropping and cleaning up in PS, Joey! Got any more for us to see?
