sunken village

How can I make this more descriptive?

Rick, the only person Max treated as family, was lazily seated upon the shoreline near the Pyro Villages dock. He stared out as the setting sun caused the waves to glitter with hues of red, pink, and blue. Sunset came earlier in the winter since days were now shorter in the south and longer in the North. Rick let out a soft sigh as he knew that if Max was still alive he would have made it to the North already. As he sat and wondered about Max he absentmindedly reached out and grasped a smooth, black stone. Staring vacantly into the stone, he saw his own sunken expression, the thought of losing Max was too much to bear as he lowered his brows and violently chucked the stone across the frozen lake. The stone stuck the ice, small pieces of ice exploded outward and tiny cracks formed on the surface.

I don’t think the amount of description is the issue her as much as the words that you’re using. Make your paragraph flow rather then drift. Like, instead of “lazily seated”, you could say “slouched”. The reader would get the point and not have to take an extra second to comprehend the sentence. Use nifty sounding adjectives and verbs; and the reader will become instantly interested in Rick and Max’s relationship. You can do it.
