Lovely image! :toast: :toast:

I might be tempted to crop a little off the top and bottom, but thats just personal preference.

Nice shot.
I think I would only crop a little from the bottom, but not to much.

I really like the sky in this, I think i'd crop a bit from the bottom. Very artistic image.

nice image. potentially nicer, if there has been a greater contrast in the sky area. is this possible in post? i imagine so.

Looks a touch soft on my screen but a stunning capture. As for cropping I would agree about taking some off the bottom but nothing from that great flaming sky.

I agree with Robert that it looks a little soft, but fabulous sky. Crop is an improvement to IMO.

The crop is much better Mike. I always find that with silhouettes there has to be a strong graphic image. It is the graphic edge against the background that makes the picture. Anything extra in the black department is just superfluous.
