WC 419 SunglassFilter

I took this Spring of 2008 overlooking my pasture. I read once that if a filter was not available that one could improvise by using a pair of sunglasses, so I thought I would give it a try. I kinda like what I got and was after your opinions. My glasses did not have this reddish tint, however this is how the camera saw it.
1/160 sec, F9.0, ISO 100, hand held, sunset. Cropped square.
Thanks for looking and all C&C welcomed.

Not sure its a good substitute for a filter, but its an interesting effect! Id crop a bit of the dark bottom. :wavey:

Very interesting experiment John. I love the stark tree limbs against the vibrant sky, but agree with Stan about cropping some off the bottom.
