Sometimes, you just get blessed with some wonderful glory. Nicely captured, and not overdone.

I know, I'm a slacker... I didn't get to yours, but it would have gotten a high score from me. Great colours!

Just great!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 01/23/2006 10:28:31 PM
This is good. I like the cloud formation and the way the last light from the sun has streaked the edges with pink. The red horizon breaks the image with just about the right amount of beach and sea showing.

Gorgeaous shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Really nice wide angle shot! The sky is very dramatic! I think the hotspot where the sun is is a bit of a distraction, but it's hardly enough to take away from how great the sky is :)
