The storm is over goofy. Pic looks great!

thanks for the comments but.......id like some constructive critisism. like "more airperspective", "to bright in the foreground", "the water looks like plastic" - "you should have" blaaagdfhl;j

Yeah, the water is the biggest problem here, it's dosent look plastic, it's looks clear, maybe too clear. and the color is too saturated. try making the water more reflective. that's all I got, thanks for posting.

I like it a LOT. There seems to be raining in the background, and a patch of beautiful, calm and warm sunlight up front. Well done.

The only thing I find odd is the differences in the shades of the rock... the one up front to the right has a low-contrast/medium value shadow/low texture detail, the middle one to the left has high contrast/high detail/very dark shades, and the third resembles the one up front, but, things do wash out in distance.

I mean this respectfully of course:

If you are truly looking for constructive commentary

1) The ship is probably on a sand bar, not a rock or outcropping. The scene does not appear to lend itself to coral reefs. So it is hard to imagine the ship still being upright and in this condition.

2) The color of the plant growth on the left rock seems kind of different / odd (compared to the rock on the right). Perhaps this is a detail vs blur effect you intended.

3) While I like the water texture, it appears too solid, not 'fluid' enough for the wind that is blowing.

4) The rock (for lack of a better term) on the left seems very detailed, but the rock on the right seems kind of blurry (artistic effect ?)

5) I assume there is a 3rd rock off of the image (at 4:00) that casts the shadow that extends from the bottom middle to the lower left of the image. I am not sure this enhances the image or not.

Please don't take this wrong, I like the image, but you appeared to ask for more constructive commentary.

I keep coming back to this one, I really like the look (and feel) of the water. The landscape is also very nice.
