Apart from a slight tilt in the horizon (sorry, can't help noticing it) I really like this sunset, Karan. Awesome, beautiful colours, and a very interesting PoV. Not that the sun needs framing imo, but I like the silhouettes created by the backlight. If it was my shot, I'd print a large version and put it on the wall.

I like this one a lot Karan,
great purple/orange interplay,
the backlit structure form is solid and overall
it takes on a life of it's own as a stand alone abstract.
My personal preference would have been to off center to the left a bit more the forms and add a tiny amount of negative space on the right, but that may just be me.
You did a fabulous job here!

That is really an original sunset. It is not easy to take these pictures and not repeat.

Good shot - excellent light, that pinpoint sun (rise?) is a nice touch. I can't quite establish whether it works because it follows the 'rules' of composition (placement of collapsed pier) or breaks them (placement of horizon and sun.)
Either way - it works!

Excellent capture.

Hi Karan,as someone has already stated, it is not easy taking shots of the same place without repeating yourself,but you are managing to give us different views each time.
The remains of the pier are interesting in silhouette,plus their shadows.
The colours are beautiful.
Good sharpness.
Tfs, regards Jean.

original silhouettes with abstract forms, they appear very aggressive within this beautiful sunset atmosphere
wonderful colour tones, like the purple sea.
original composition, again, great work !

Great silhouette against super sunset colours. I like the feeling of the structure being a mixture of architecture and nature.
Thanks for sharing

Hi Karan, gorgeous shot. I may well have to get that lens since it seems to work so well with the 350D. TFS. Nice pov and dof. Very artistic.

Hi Karan,
I like this perfectly-framed sun . . . colors are most attractive, and the menacing silhouette doesn't look so bad in the beautiful setting.

Hi karan,
Where do I start. You've created so many beautiful photos that I have missed that I am just going to start at the one that atracked me most. I just love the combiantion of the tranquil light and the twisted metal. The details in the pier and ropes and seaweed are perfect. The fact that you took this photo just before the sun set is great. (I guess its a sunset since I believe that Brighton is on the south coast) Unfortunately, I do have to point out that the horizon is slightly tilted. But then it doesn't make the photo less beautiful.
TFS,
Niek
