Photo By: Chris Gaul

With this photo I tried to capture the sunset at the lake. The way I took the picture, the sun is in the upper left portion of the photo. This leads you to the left side where there is a fishing dock which ended up being the main subject of the photo. I used Photoshop to sharpen the image to make the sky more vibrant. Overall the photo came out pretty good and I’m happy with it.

I honestly do not like this picture very much. It shows good space and has really nice colors in the sky, but it is so cliché. I can tell it is a beautiful view but you did not capture that feeling. Maybe a different view or a different time of day would make the feel of the photo more exciting.

I like how you can see everything in this photo. It has a very HDR look which makes it interesting. The only suggestion I would have is to try and establish a better subject or point of interest. I think in this shot it is supposed to be the sunset but it’s hard to tell. Overall great shot though!

I really like this photo. I love the way that the yellow from where the sun is setting hits the water bringing attention to the dock. This picture is so calming. Great job.

Beautiful sunset. I like the mild feeling this photograph gives off. Sometimes a simple yellow sunset can give the same effect of an intense red and purple one. I like how you balanced the photo between the sky and the water, putting the land right in the middle of the photograph. And the yellow really contrasts well with the blue in the photograph as well.

This is a really pretty picture. I think the light in the picture fits it perfect.

I really like how you captured the blues and oranges of the sky. Sunsets tend to be a difficult subject to take pictures of, but I think you mastered it quite well.

This is good picture I wasn’t immediately drawn to the dock but then I got it. Good timing though the sun is in the perfect spot. And the clouds look really cool.
