Beautiful pastel lighting you witnessed. I especially like the way you composed to have the blue green tide pools pointing to the distant mountains.  Good luck in the competition.

This is a great view, Eva, with the contrasting swatches of similar color and similar shapes, going from the smooth, rounded rocks and pools of the foreground to the rugged mid-ground peaks, ending with the partly cloudy sky.  Very moody, very intriguing.

Hi Eva, I really like the light and color you have captured here. The composition in the foreground is very elegant, I love the line leading in from the LRC. While I really like the composition as is, I wonder how it would be with a little more room on the URC, allowing the mountain to breathe and take in that warm light

Gorgeous scene in nice sunset light, Eva. I like the contrasting warm and cool colors. The shapes in the foreground make for an interesting foreground and nice lead in to the rest of the beautiful scene.

This is really nice, Eva. Wonderful light with great looking color. The rock shapes and foreground pools makes for a very interesting forground. Nice seeing your work.

Just breathtaking, with lovely colors and beautiful light. The comp is perfect, and the rounded ponds make a wonderful foreground.
Stunning image.

Great to see an image from you Eva!  Love the colors here and how the greenish-tourquoise contrasts beautifully with the warm light on the mountain.  the blue in sky adds the third set of colors.  The composition works beautifully as well as I like what you've done with your nearly rule-of-thirds placement of the horizon - giving ample emphasis on the rounded shapes of the rock and sea.

Well done, enjoying this quite a lot.

Yea the colors and scenery are nuts.  Very cool.  Might echo some other notes about a bit tight.  I would love to see this a bit looser (or just stepping back if already super wide).  Feels pinched on the left side and urc.  Killer conditions and great job seeing this one :)

Lovely light and a good comp.  The rocks out there in the moving water hold my eye. I do agree with Navin that it might be interesting to see what a bit more room would do in the URC.
The pastel colors in this are soooooo nice.  Nice one!

This is superb, Eva. The colors, textures and shapes make for a very engaging image. I would like a touch more room in the upper right above the peak but that's minor. Well done.

HI eva
Haven't seen your images in a while, how are you doing?
lovely image here. I think this might work better as BW. Colors are lovely but look funky.

Eva, this is a fantastic image!  I love the focus throughout the scene.  Hyperfocal focusing or did you use some other technique?
Beautiful!

Fascinating mix of colors Eva. I really like those pools; the green they bring to the scene really adds.
