Your tropical panoramas are gorgeous! Key West hé? Good memories, was stationed in Miami in 1994 and drove all the way down to the Keys. You bring back these (good) memories with a splendid view! TFS.

Hi Kyle,
This indeed is a classic view. The colours although very nice looks a bit too saturated to me. It is just a minor personal opinion.
Sunil

If it was not a classic you are about to make it a classic from you lol! It's not the first one :) Great variant! It's a powerfull red/orange! Impressive! The angle again is excellent!

Hi Kyle, splendid painting of sunside with wonderful colors, great composition with palms, bravo, ciao Silvio

Hi Kyle,
A small piece of paradise for sure! Very nice mood here with the sunset, beach and slapping waves on the beach shore. Very romantic, peaceful, relaxing...ect....Is this all natural or did you drop in another sky? Good shooting either way and TFS!

Very beautiful composition. I am not sure if it is a result of the natural light or the PP, but something seems odd around the edges of leaves on the palm trees.

"Hope you like". ROFL... Come on Kyle, this is absolute perfection... don't be too modest ;o). A beautiful scenery, a perfect sunset. The cloud layer that splits the sun is definitely a bonus. If it was my shot, it 'd be on my wall in a gigantic blow-up!
