Bamboos along the coast of Boracay, Philippines.

Taken during sunset. The camera was facing against the sunset to capture the beautiful pink cast of the sun to the clouds.

Canon 760D + Canon 10-18mm STM + Benro tripod

Constructive criticism are welcome :D

Very nice. I enjoyed it as is.
 
Excellent timing and colors in this photo. If I had to add anything, I'd say there is something weird going on with the compression on the left side of the photo, that is slightly throwing off the composition as well as giving it unintended (I am assuming) motion in the top left sky, for what is otherwise a tranquil setting. It's still a really nice capture though, congrats.

Thank you Don Finch! :D
 
Thank you for the comment MinAZ! :)
 
Thank you stretchman! :) The clouds on the left just looks like "long exposed" but in reality there were just strips of clouds on the left and a big blob of cloud on the right. haha. :)
 
It is a very nice sunset shot, but a bit over processed IMHO. The purple is very unnatural looking to me.
I think it probably looked more like this in reality.

Wow thank you. That's better. Mind sharing what you did to achieve the more natural look? :)

Glad you like it better. First I adjusted white balance using white, black and gray points. Secondly, I created a overlay layer, and used a very large pen tool using the cloud color to brush in more color over the reflection area. Flattened and that's it.

I almost forgot, after adjusting white balance, the clouds weren't as colorful, so I added more red and a little less green in levels adjustment. Dave

If the height of the camera was higher up then the top of the poles wouldn't meet with the bottom of the trees in the background and the composition would be stronger.

Yes, I think you're right. :) I should have extended the center neck of my tripod for that.

Thank you!
