I'd personally wait until tomorrow and retake the picture. It's crooked and undistinguishable (which if fine if subject is still interesting). What were you going for with this one? maybe I'm missing it.

I like the subdued and flowing colors. It looks like a painting :)

Apart from there being no sun and no apparent Hawaii, it really depends on what your goals are for the image. If you're happy with it, then I don't think it's helpful if I tell you what would make me happy with it. It does appear to lean a little to the left. But that can be straightened out. It might help to crop a little off the top in order to get the horizon off center.

I get the concept, but the execution came out too dark for me anyways.


you're a great friend, but if Zombies chase us, I am tripping you.

I'm with Joe. If it wasn't for the title I would have never guessed what this shot was. Might be my monitor but I can hardly see anything. I'm no expert but I would say it has some potential but needs to be PP'd to bring out some details.

Hm, I'd send this one to the Recycle Bin. Sorry if that's harsh.

If you were going for some sort of abstract look, then the opinion will vary with the viewer. It looks like one of those canvases you buy at a print shop or home decor store.
