January Sunset
January 6, 2008 to be exact. Going through some older images I never had worked up yet, wondering if they are just taking up space or I should hang on to'em.

Canon EF-S 18-55 f/3.5-5.6 @ 28mm
Exposure: 1/125 @ f/10
Crop: 90% of original, (straighten horizon)

I'd say this one is a keeper. Nicely done.

I would think this is a keeper Brad. The tree in silhouette has a lot of character and the clearing skies at left and dark ominous clouds at right balance the scene nicely. Well done.

Excellent composition. I really love the reflected images and colors. The tree silhouetted in the foreground has a most interesting shape. Definitely a keeper.

A strong and interesting composition. Great color for such a dark moody image. I wish the highlight burn were a little less severe because I think it would accentuate the sunburst a little more, but that's a pretty small nit. Great work.

I really like how you positioned the tree in relationship to the sunset.

I like it. You have enough shapes in it to garner interest and enough light and color to hold the interest. Great composition.
