Wow! Gorgeous colors. Almost too intense to be real!

It's real alright. Everyone who has shot with me says I'm cursed for sunrise and sunset. Maybe this will reverse the curse for a while. :wink:

Nice capture Ed. It was almost that red here this AM before sunrise. No pretty lake where I was though.

I missed the sunset Wednesday night. Glad someone got to capture it. Nice shot.

A spectular light show it seems! Good catch Ed, it's rare when we are priveledged to see such a display of light. My most memorable moment was looking over Green Bay from a small village named Egg Harbor. The sunset light was not to be believed, except I captured it on film.

Good shot, thanks for sharing! :smile:

Wow, beautiful image, Ed. I was watching the sky about the time you shot this, and remember how I wished I was somewhere to take advantage of that incredible sunset. Glad you were able to get a few...
