Enrique, a wonderful composition you have found here. These old abandoned ship photos always catch my eye. For me, the ship could be toned down some as the sunset lighting is not matching the direction of the sunset, great detail in the decaying metal though! :toast:

Very beautiful Enrique. You have turned an old, shipwrecked boat into a work of art. :toast:

I love oldoats, and this one is exceptional. Really nice detail in the metal, nice sunsxet colours, and good comp. The smoothe water is very complimentary - does not compete, but adds another marvelous texture to the image.

This is a warm and beautiful ocean sunset. The shipwreck adds a bit of intrigue...and wonderful shadows on the water. The death and decay of the ship seem OK ... not foreboding or gloomy. I think a moonlight shot of grey, black, and blues with some ocean froth and waves might change the mood quickly. As is...the power of this warm coloring and softened waters is quite pleasant. Well done!

Pretty amazing how the rusty hull coordinates with the colors in the sky. I like the emphasis on the boat and how the rest of the image helps to put it into context.

Great light on the derelict hull Enrique. I also like the hulls shadow which balances the almost silhouetted sea stack on the left.

Immaginative, colorful, dramatic, well-conceived, and nicely processed! :toast:
