Panoramic stitch of St Malo at sunset. This is a huge file with incredible details down to the footwear of the people across on the beach. I wanted to show how this unmissable Breton town is tied to the sea as reflected by its seafaring and swashbuckling history.

Kah Kit, This is a wonderful image! I like how you have shown us this location in your comp, it's a very interesting view. Beautiful light, color and it does look like the detail is awesome. Great looking structures. Very nice!

Very nice! I'm really attracted to the contrast between the jumbled rounded rocks in the foreground and the strongly patterned architecture of the castle and it's reflection.

Fantastic detail and perspective Kah Kit. I like the clarity of the water in the foreground and reflection of the fortress in the distance.

Wow, this looks cool. I am glad I find this one. (I am not going to M&N often, but since I have an image here now...). The details in the full version must be crazy, already in the larger version they are stunning.
Only one nit: The sky looks strongly sharpened (large version), perhaps you want take the sharpening back a bit.

Kah Kit,

Wow, what an incredible photograph. It's wonderful purely from a landscape, imagery point of view, but the castle, or whatever that is takes this over the top. I love everything about this. A fabulous travel image.

Incredible image, Kah Kit,.... This has a fantasy feel to it. A scene from a land of magic and spells. Well done.

Great travel shot Kah Kit. Great reflections and lots of depth. Very balanced composition also.
