The summer sunsets over the Chesapeake Bay from Smith's Beach (where we vacation at my in-laws house) are just amazing. We love to sit on the deck and enjoy the changing colors in the sky and on the bay as the sun slowly disappears. It is truly a magical and peaceful part of the day.
God makes his people strong. God gives his people peace. Psalm 29:11
I hope that I can become a better photographer with the examples here on Am3 and by getting your feedback on my images.
Please give me your constructive comments - I do appreciate your input!
I may not be able to reply to each of your comments - but they mean a lot to me and I thank you!
I can feel peace just looking at this photo, Chris. It makes me feel like I'm there on the deck! I just love the light on the water! Well done!

Oh Chris, I love the pool of light that first showed up at the top and then the reflection of the sun at the bottom - a magical shot!

Absolutely beautiful image Chris. Starting with the golden light on the waters edge, there is then a continuation of important elements progressing through the image. Wonderful.

@Kelela: Thank you very much...
This is so well composed Chris with the sunlight glistening on the water on the left side while the right side capturing the boat . It does look very peaceful and serene.

Sorry Chris, I really do know my left hand from my right, but I sure have everything backwards in my comment above. Regardless this picture is a masterpiece. God bless.
