    Beautiful colors and light, but it seems out of focus.

    I find E-P1 shot in RAW needs much more sharpening than my Canon DSLR

    Nice. Looks like you increased the dynamic range. You in DC or is FL really so flat that you can see it from there? - TF

    Welcome back MB. Golden hour indeed. Dead center but that is bold here. At first I thought there is an ever so slight tilt to the monument, but after examining it closer it looks straight. Very colorful in a good way,

    We retired this spring.

    Since then I've never been so busy in my life. Travel, shopping, bike riding, kayaking, roller skating, hiking and on and on and on.

    Barely had time for photography.

    Things seem to be calming down a bit now so perhaps I will be able to spend more time here.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Congrats on the retirement. I think this is one of you best shots of the monument. Nice work.

    Nice colors, but the trees in the forground kinda ruin it. Had you walked maybe 15 feet to the left to that the trees fit into the dead area of the setting sun, they'd compliment better. Like the wide angle of it though. Accentuates the immensity of the Monument.
