Show Me Your Sunsets...

[Lava Lamp]

I realized yesterday that the title of the board is "nature" and "wildlife." We're covering wildlife pretty good, I think, but what about nature shots that don't involve wildlife? I thought maybe we could share sunsets. This is one of the few I've taken that I like. Show us yours...

Here is one from film that I took in Sedona from my deck Not a great file, but I assure you that is the true color/saturation of the sky.

[Spec A!]

Maui:






All 3 different days (although every day is like that!), and no adjustments. Taken with a coolpix 5700 on A mode.

[paulnj]

I am obviously joking about the saturation, but it was only a little less saturated ;)

BTW.. That is 19mm on film and the hill is 2-3 miles away. It's really bad scan , but it's a sunset ;)

My wide angle lenses don't do well for taking pictures of birds...but sunsets are good.

I have only a few sunsets, anything here any good?

[SmartWombat]

Of course thre's always a bird and a sunset

Wow. These are all so good. Personally, I really like Wombat's car, WalterRick's San Francisco, and the two from Africa.

Any more out there?

not all that great, i just found it a bit fun

Wow, gosh almighty there have been some very nice images in this thread. I have heard it stated that every picture of a sunset is the same image, and in most cases I tend to agee. There isn't much creativity put into this subject. Most people think of sunsets in a P&S frame of mind, but I think the images in this thread show that it dosn't have to be that way.

Thanks for posting all of the awesome shot guys!

All I have are a copule of retreads, but what the hell...

Michigan sunset:


Florida...Ok so it's a sunrise...Sue me

[SmartWombat]

I'm thinking of blowing that up to poster size.
I took it with a smart car owners magazine cover in mind.
Never came to fruition

Well I can't compete with whats here but here is one of my many sunsets. This one was just this week in my backyard through the trees looking southwest.

Now off to shoot girls basketball.....
