Can't decide whether this is landscape or people so since it was travel I placed it as journey. I know many may say its a tosser but I liked it. Please let me know what you think.
I think this could be an interesting shot if processed differently. It has some dramatic pieces to it. It needs SOMETHING but I really can't put my finger on it.
This is a beautifully composed photograph. I would like to see it a bit more vibrant though. Not too much, but enough to make the grass a bit greener. I have a feeling that would add to this killer shot.

Thanks to you both for weighing in on the shot, I appreciate the comments! I agree, I tried to make it a little more vibrant. Also, had one other that I snapped before he completely walked away. Kind of like the clouds better.
Try a crop where the center of interest as you see it is off center. Divide the screen into thirds both vertically and horizontally. Your get four points where the lines intersect. Put you center of interest on one of those points and see if you like it.

I don't think it needs to be recomposed at all. The various aspects all work -- dynamic cloud, sun reflecting as a halo around your person, and the foreground curving into the background and pointing to the reflection. But if you were able to do some localized adjustments and brighten the foreground so the colors weren't so muddy, I think you'd have a more dynamic shot.
This is a beautiful picture and I think it is a great candidate for a dramatic B&W.

Marcelo, thank you very much for your comment! I appreciate it! I think a black and white may also work well and think I will process one and see what I can come up with.

Hi Hackbone, thank you as well for taking the time to comment! Thought about a rule of thirds type crop and may indeed test it out to get my brother on the rightish of the frame, omitting a bit of the ocean and see how it looks.

Hi Gotham, I appreciate your comments as well! While I think I will take Hackbone's suggestion to see how it changes the picture I too liked the composition of the original. I am not sure the pics were posting correctly when the three of you commented, but I re-did the original and added a second shot to the post. In each I tried to liven up the foreground. If you happen back on the thread, let me know what you think.
