Hi Ewa

I have a few thoughts on this photo:
1) I think it´s quite a nice image, and I like the way the sun shines through the clouds. It makes for a nice effect.

2) Though I like your foreground, I still think it´s a bit too long. You could easily crop out a little bit from the bottom without losing any quality in the photo. You might miss the foot prints, which create quite interesting shadows, but you´d still have the silhouetted stones, that could also do the job as a foreground introduction (of course, if you use photoshop, you could probably keep both nicely with some post-processing).

3) The silhouetted people is also a nice addition. I think I would have liked it better if you only had the person closest. I think that could have created a bit more mood and atmosphere.

4) The lines created by the light on the sand look nice. With some cropping of the bottom part of the foreground, these would also play a stronger role in your photo.

5) I think maybe some more contrast and saturation would have benefitted this image.

6) With no information about either the location for this photograph, or what you have done in terms of PP (if any), you leave the viewers with a lesser experience of the photo. Some information would also help the idea behind TE, to learn about the world through travel photography. I don´t know anything about this photo. For your future posts, please think about that. It´s important for the rest of us.
TFS :)
