A shot from a week ago. A terrific sunset captured 5 minutes away from home. The sky was nuclear and the tide was perfect for reflections in the small ponds..

When i shot this...behind me there was the most amazing rainbow i`ve ever seen. Posting that later..

Canon 5d
16-35mmL
Lee 0.9 SG
Hoya Polarizer

Take care folks!

Good comp, leading lines in the great foreground, reflection and sunset colors. The vignette seems a little strong to me in the ULC sky, but looks good in the foreground.

Superb composition and light, Arild! Everything just flows here, it's so dynamic. I won't say this is a stellar shot (although it is), just because I envy you living so close to such landscapes. :) Great shot!

Arild - I have now seen this a few places and have enjoyed it each time. The reflected colors in the foreground add a lot of interest and I love the leading lines. Everything comes together very nicely - beautiful work!
