I too find it intense, however that may be your intent. For me it's the blue more than anything else, it doesn't feel like dusk.I also wonder about the water reflections, I would think with such a graphic sky, some of that would be reflected.Having said that I much perfer it to your last colour reflection study.I kinda like the brownish color in the sky on the left, even though I can't imaging it is the local colour. Hope this helps. Julie
Hey Ralph, too much "chroma" in the sky here, a bit would have worked better I think with the rest of the sky colors greyed somewhat! What I mean is the sky colors are too loud and noisy, but that's easy to change. I like the land and water and the green in the sky near the horizon and the 'drama' you achieved here...Brian
I like what's below the horizon a lot, but what's above seems a bit too intense to me. I might consider toning down the sky a bit.

Great comments Thank you!
ReplyDeleteReally like this one Ralph! Perhaps a bit dark in places in the sky though. Nice one!

Hey Jeffery! Nice to hear from you. I am doing all the changes everyone suggested including yours.
