Looking at all the deviations: this was the one that caught my eye.

I love the use of composition in this photograph. I also find the viewpoint of the photograph very well thought out. The bleeding colours of the sunset are merging with the dark formation of the clouds. The way this photograph was taken is so beautiful and has an essence of serenity in the piece of art. The mood of the photo is very calm and has a nice feel to it. It's easy on the eyes - probably my most favourite aspect of the photograph. Texture is seen everywhere on this photograph; especially the floor. I particularly like the odd person standing on the right hand side staring into the Sunset because it makes the piece feel complete and show a more deeper meaning to it. As if looking into the setting sun reminds you of all the glorious memories of the past.

I've seen many photgraphs like this but, for some reason, this photograph in particular is very striking to me (and most likely other deviants). Although with the sullen colours of clouds and bricks/tilings of the ground, the sea and sunset bring the photograph to life. I'm impress to see that so many elements have been shown in just one photograph - yet it all looks so simple because everything works extremely well together.

It may not be the most interesting thing to spot for others but I found the lamp post in the middle of the photograph to be perhaps the centre of attention of the photograph. I know that the title for this wonderful piece of art is "Sunset" but I feel that the presence of that lamp post reveals the old-fashioned theme of the photo, a message that in the presence of light even from the old objects of time - the dark will surrender itself to the luminous light. The light would also relate to the sunset and it's beauty. The breath-taking moments of watching a sunset has been well grasped by this photo.

A truly magnificent view of a sunset: anyone would wish to be that person in the photo gazing into that horizon.
