I am almost speechless with this capture, but I can not be, since this is a critique. Any who, the colours of the sky and reflection are pure and ravishing. The way they coincide with one another, is brilliant and mind numbing. Though many shots like this are gone, this one has a special quality to it: the emotion and feeling of being pure yet assertive. It is hard to explain the exact feelings, yet you can guess from what I have said so far.

But, now getting technical, the use of the 3rd's rule, is done very well here. Having the sun directly in the middle would have ruined the shot, and the emotion would not have been portrayed. Also, having this a horizontal shot, was brilliant, since it gives you a wide range of things; the sky, water, clouds and trees. Yet, what I would like to see done, is it being cropped slightly off of the top. There seems to be a little too much sky, for my liking.

In conclusion, this is one of the most captivating sunset shots I have seen in my year of deviantART. Be proud of this shot Sean, you deserve to be.
