This one seems a bit busy with several foreground items vying for attention, hmmm probably just me though Loved your last series, I think you might have spoilt me with that last lot
Isn't it a fantastic time of day, the light is beautiful and that looks like a nice spot...

I think I like the rocks more than the sunset bit - the coppery tone of the rocks is really neat, although maybe the saturation of the reds is a bit too high (there's some speckling in places on my screen).

Thanks guys. This was taken in the same spot as the earlier ones I posted, at a beach called Greenfields beach in Vincentia, Jervis Bay. Beautiful place for a swim too must have been in there a good 2 hours the other night.

I'm a little disappointed in the lack of detail in the foreground wet rocks. It just screams for sharpness, but is rather soft. I sort of like the strange quality you got out of the water though.

Personally for me there is too much area in shadow (eg. top-right, bottom) and as a result it doesn't do anything for me. Sorry

Owen was this handheld? Focus seems a problem to me. Composition is good

Thanks for the input guys. As mentioned before, this was really under exposed and so I guess by bringing it up to proper exposure the noise that it has brought with it results in a lack of sharpness as well. It wasn't handheld but taken on a cheapy tripod... of which now the legs are stuck and don't extend very well.
