This is at Cabo Rojo light house in Puerto Rico. This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. Cropped to 80% of original. No techs saved.

the colors here are fabulous but its the water that makes the image. It gives this a sense of energy and is very exciting to look at. The soft green grass in the bg ground seems a little oof but that's a 'nit' and I think this image is wonderful. Very nicely done!

I like the strong geyser effect and the color of the water. I don't like how the horizon is distorted and tilted, it creates a very strange feeling when you see the whole picture, like "wow nice, but something is wrong"

Nice job freezing the action, but the tilted horizon is distracting - should be an easy fix.

Thanks for the input. This is a lack of being a detailed person, which I am trying to become better at. I was so caught up with the water and color that I didn't even notice the horizon. You would think that would be one of the first things I look at. Again thanks for your comments and input, it all helps a lot.

Great combination of action in the splash and soothing colors.

Well, the action certainly holds my interest here. Perfect shutter release, IMO. Rest of the scene is very nice, though water has a definite CCW tilt. Land however,looks right :confused:
