Sunset from Cape Kiwanda - Oregon.
Nikon d600 - 16-35
I have done some blending to get water falls on the sides.
You comments and feedback are appreciated.

Jamal.
You were very lucky to get an amazing sunset that day
The reflected color on the ocean is nice. I am not sure if I would keep the magenta present in the left side waterfall, and maybe warm it up some like the centre channel "sunset reelection". I like this composition, but knowing me, I would have jumped into that ocean and got closer to those waterfalls !!
You could crop that foreground out, and make a nice Pano with this image. But that is personal preference.
Nice capture!

What a sunset! And great composition with the other photographer (this will get moved to man and nature by the mods, but I'm glad I saw it here). Great job with the blending, too - looks great to me.

This beautiful Jamal! Great light, color and the composition with the human element is very strong. I see Aaron's thoughts about being left heavy, but personally, I like the balance throughout; the bottom rock balances nicely with the sky, and the left rocks (although kinda dark) with the flow, balances nicely with the striations and ofcourse the photographer on the right. I like this quite a lot.
However, as mentioned, this does belong in the M&N gallery and I'm going to move it there after posting my comment. Hopefully it makes sense, otherwise feel free to send a note to any of the moderators.
thanks for posting!

What an intense sky. Great to see this often photographed location with a sense of scale.
