    Yet another sunset

    This is literally the first photo I took with my first digital camera. I got the camera by UPS that afternoon, drove up to a place called Saratoga Gap in the Bay Area, pulled out the camera and started snapping away.

    Lets hear the comments!!

    Maybe later I'll post a more recent example of my sunsets to see how I've improved. This is from mid-late 2004

    Re: Yet another sunset

    I too was up in that area on a sunday night 10/2004.Maybe the same night... Look What are the odds ?
    The date of these was 10/07/04.Taken with a Canon S1iS

    It's possible that the 10/7/04 was that same night. Maybe ?

    Very beautiful picture and a good way to start out with a camera. I like the picture a lot! The clouds and the sunsetting over them is very pretty. Good shot

    That would be funny if it was the same night!

    Looking at the data, it was shot on 7/13/04

    Jorgemonkey - that is a lovely sunset.

    starriderrick - I love the third which looks like a wave coming towards you.
