This shot was made in my recent trip to Pico island during a magical sunset with Pico mountain in background.

All C&C are very welcome.

Strong comp with a good balance and plenty of interest top to bottom. I'd prefer the oranges to be pulled back a little in the sky. Other than that, this looks quite nice to me.

Very nice light, colors and compsition. Then I have to say that I like Acores Ilhas very much!!!
Did you blend different shots together or it is just one? :toast:

Beautiful scene and composition. I would definitely lower the saturation levels on the yellows/oranges in the sky. Sweet photo, Rui.

beautiful shot of my island, rui. is this from this year? man, if it is, there´s not too much snow on top of the mountain compared to other years. repost looks better, imo. the large trunk working as a diagonal is nice, so are the details and colors all around. if I were to pick something to correct, it would be that small pool under the large white branch, I feel if the water were darker there would be more separation there to isolate both from each other, or maybe darken the whites in the branch, one or another. my eyes keep going there. just a thought rui, the comp is fabulous. great piece of work.
