Tropical Sunset, a photo from Guam, Other

Photographer's Note

I got exposure of -1 EV for the sky of evening glow in background by spot metering, in order to realize my memory of the beautiful tropical sunset drawn on the stamp at a child's time.
Tech: levels adjusted, color adjusted for drawing colors in Velvia(RVP) accurately, unsharp mask(16%), added frame, and NeatImage(default, 307KB --> 112KB) for removing the processing noise.

Hi Hisashi,
a beautiful tropical landscape, I like the light and the tones of colours of the sky.
Very well done!

nice photo, I like the atmosphere and colours are wonderful, but I'd have sharpened it a little bit.

It is a pretty sunset. However, for my tastes, the picture is a little busy. Where is the focus? Is it the sunset, the palm trees swaying in the wind, the fence, or maybe the torches?

The picture could a bit of sharpening, and personally, I would have cropped off just a little off the bottom.
