I really love this image, colours and reflections are great. I would like to see a bit more space at the top of the sail maybe (but only my opinion - if you like it that way, then go with it!)

Nice, but I'd fade out the sails in the reflection. Right now it looks a bit too pasted on the water. Good luck!

Another suggestion, because of the hot color temperature from the shiny sunset, equally the boat colors should be warmer, maybe more on the right side. It's just a suggestion, and my opinion. GL

I think the boat has weird shadows... if the light comes from right, there should be no shadow on the right side of the boat. Good luck, i love the mood and the blending :P

#NICE! agree with rusvelt. the underwater szene have to be smaller, cause you can see the water surface from bottom in a wrong perspective! another point: the water line between underwater and upper part is way too linear. you need many small curves in this pic ...however, great lighting and blending skills!

Lovely atmosphere and nice illumination makes it very fascinating. Also the underwater part results very well made, but, in my opinion, it shouldn't be so wide; it gives emptiness to half of the picture.

This is awesome. Many would have stopped at just the flames out of the mouth. But putting that smoke out of the nose really adds something!! Nice work.

EDIT: IMO removing the moon & lightning would make a simpler, less distracting background and allow us to focus on the main image.

Nicely done, but the lightning should be on the left, since that's the lighter side of the sky and where the light on the face comes from.
