    I really like this shot!

    Looks like you caught the fisherman at the perfect moment with his body lean and the line whipping across the frame. Add the sun and the silhouette of the city and this is a well-done composition. But that's not enough. You topped it off with the seagull on the piling!

    Thanks for sharing.

    The original shot was this. Someone suggested I clone out the bystander,
    and I think it's better without them.

    Works both ways for me. In the first, it is a landscape shot. In the second, it starts to become more of a people shot with the second person appreciating the setting.

    I do like the second. Looks like she has a pole in hand that she has momentarily forgotten about in order to look at the sunset.

    nice sunset shot. judging by the angle of view of Seattle and Hunt's point, this was somewhere down near Carillon Point in Kirkland?

    It was Kirkland. I don't know the town too well, but yes, this was at
    a park, right downtown.
