I have a hard time composing for sunsets. I have included this structure in the foreground but was not sure if it works to have the water line toutching the botom of the frame. Do I need a foreground element right at the bottom edge??

Hi Rene, I took the liberty of doing a small amount of worr on your image. I cropped a bit off the top and lightened the water. Compositionally I feel you did a good job. There are no hardfast rules that you must have something in the foreground. It is very helpful that you do but not all images lend themselves to that type of composition. I try to have a foreground in many of my landscapes and look for them when I'm in the field but there are times when I'm at a loss to find anything I like or is useful.
Hi Rene,
I agree with Dave and the repost is a bit stronger. You can't always have strong FG elements so working with pleasing shapes and colors as you did here works fine also.
