Hi, this is an excellent photo, and hard to imagine the scale but the balancing looks almost stone-age. Many thanks for sharing kind regards Colin

Comment from Lavanya J
Wow! There are so many things I love about this photo. The amazing color in the sky matches so well with the stacked rocks and the waves. The waves are light and not too harsh which adds a quiet and calm component. Since the waves are so calm it even seems like the rocks are peaceful too the way they are stacked on each other. Everything in this photo goes so well with eachother. Really nice ! :)

Comment from Brenda Curley
This is a very visual composition.
Nice backlighting.
The focus and clarity is good And, the color complimentary.
This stacking of rocks signifies thankfulness.
Appropriate at Thanksgiving.

a great composition Steve with these two people made of stacked stones watching the seting sun; as usual, an entry clearly "out of the box" with sharp details;

Steller BFF!
I love the different look to each set of stones. They seem to have their own personalities and you have made them alive and in tune with nature.

Hey BFF,
Been here in Puerto Vallarta since November 1. Will be leaving for Ajijic at the end of the month. Plan to be there until June maybe July. These rocks are from here in Puerto.

Must be gorgeous there. Your shots are awesome.
Comment from Malmax
This is beautiful FS, and it really makes me think of two people facing one another. The stone figure on the right appears to me as the male, the one on the left the female, perhaps because of size...
It's unique in that the sun setting behind the male seems to enlighten him....or he is the enlightened one of the two figures. This is really a wonderful and artistic image and I very much enjoy your title.
Are they watching each other, are they watching over the vast sea, much thought given to the imagination. The sky is perfect for creating the mood this image evokes. Bravo FS!

Thank you so much VO for your enlightening review and commentary. You have interpreted this image in an artistic and spiritual way. Actually your review is better than the image ; )

Comment from cleo85
It amazes me how those rocks are staked and balanced so they do not tumble down. Those rocks look like artworks of our ancestors at the stone age. Your photo is perfect focused, exposed and treated with mixed media. The sunset colors in the background and the reflections in the water are fascinating. How the light emphasizes the sculpture at right is remarkable. The rock sculptures are excellently placed within the frame, The mixed media is well composed. The composition is balanced.

Thank you so much Cleo. Yes it is amazing how they can balance these big stones and make them stand. They make for a wonderful silhouette as the sun sets.
Thank you so much for your review and Very Generous rating ~ Steve
