    Lovely colors. I'm liking the first one, just cause it has more of that silhouette feel! Lovely shot.

    Hello Knight,

    You caught some pretty colors here. I prefer the composition of the the first two over the third and I actually prefer the first picture out of the first two for its darker exposure.

    That being said, it seems to me that the tree cut in half at the extreme right is a bit misplaced. Which lead me to present you this crop (I also got rid of what appears to be a power line tower at the extreme left):

    what do you think about it??

    Seb

    Wonderous colors. I like #1 best, but it could use more balance perhaps.

    Nice sunset scene knight. I like the first one I agree with the crop that leaves the half tree on the right out. Also the image looks a bit greyed out.

    I took it photoshop and applied auto levels at 60% and WOW the colours look great.

    Seems like winter sunsets are better than summer's. Decent shots. I like Seb's crop. It shows how changing the composition via a crop can totally change the feel of the picture. Nice job everyone.
