I like this a great deal. Wonderful, dramatic exposure the mountainside creates a striking diagonal. This strikes me as very "otherworldly".

Not sure I like the flare because it distracts from everything else, but without it not sure what the image would be. Overall a sucsessful image.

Hmmm..I like the flare, it adds a nice touch to the image. Your picture has a nice warm color to it.

Although images of the sunset are quite common this one is anything but. The strong diagonal ridge and the flare make it unique. Great shot!

I don't think I like this. The flare is interesting and in some instances works to enhance a shot. Here, it looks like an attempt to save an otherwise ordinary sunset shot. Heavy cropping on both the top and bottom as well as the left are needed for my tastes. I think you need to eliminate most of the black and turn it into a narrow landscape shot. Just my 2 cents.

Cheers
