Description
I had gone to the port a few times but I couldn't find a view that wasn't cluttered, until this day when I was walking towards the beach and the sun drew my eye to this composition.-reprocessed

It's a beautiful thing when enchanting scenery meets artistic composition, and this photo defines that concept! The lines formed by horizon, the tops of the sail masts, and their reflections in the water are so aesthetically pleasing. For me, the perspective makes this photo, as it fights against symmetry and makes it a much more interesting composition than many water reflection shots. The exposure is perfect, as it allows for rich, natural, saturated colors of the sunset, as well as some darkness in the water. I love the way the sun breaks the masts of the farthest boats. The sun is placed in a very nice spot and even the path of the clouds seems to be following the line created by the tops of the sail masts.
I would show this to any beginner in photography or any visual art form and say, "THIS is how you compose a scene!". In fact, I probably will.
