Taken some time ago on the beach in ONP. There were no clouds in the sky to give the multi-colored sunset, but this golden glow made quite a show.

Nice composition and terrific silhouette. Peaceful with the wave action. An oldie but a goodie!

Beautiful color, with the gold contrasting with the silhouetted cliff and trees. And, just enough room at the top to give the highest tree some space. Don't know your shutter speed, but I wonder if you could have used a slower shutter speed to apply a dreamy effect to the water movement. Nice capture!

Lovely sunset image, John! I especially like the silhouetted outline of the trees and cliff. Very artistic! That sky is just glowing and I like the reflection you caught of the glow in the water. A great image could also be made by cropping up from the bottom to include just a bit of the blue water. The gold, blue, and black work well to make a great image.

The golden glow and the interesting silhouette are great. I like this very much as presented, but I could also see cropping a bit below the base of the cliff for a very different presentation. Now I see that Carolyn sees the same crop...
