Sky's a fire
From time to time I'm fortunate enough to witness great sunsets or sunrises mostly the former.

When the weather in the UK is struggling at this time of the year these sunsets inspire warmth.

I would appreciate any pointers as to how best to approach the subjects this is one of my efforts which I was pleased with but I understand it may not meet the criteria on this forum.

1D3 sigma 50mm-500mm 363mm 1/200sec f/5.6 ISO 400

Critique Advice Comment most welcome.

Thanks for looking.

Barry :wink:

well done.

A sunset everyone would stop and admire, a superb shot superbly captured, surprised you remembered to take the shot.

Appropriate title Barry - does look like the shot is on fire. There's something primeval in the way we're drawn to sunsets and sunrises and this is a cracker. Might also work as a pano cropping off the top? :smile:
