This is one of my favorites from last spring. Shot over Lake Coeur D'Alene, in North Idaho. Thanks for looking! Chip

Beautiful picture. I like the colors and how my focus started on the rocks in the foreground, then i sort of just stared at the sunset and drifted off... sorry, where was I?? :)

This is an excellent image. The colors and composition are great. Very interesting foreground, with a well managed exposure. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice picture, I love the combination of Gold and Blue. The Rock in the Foreground is beautiful with the shades of light and sparkles. I love the way the side rocks points towards the horizon and the light. The slight tilt doesn't bother me although it would have been very easy to fix. All in all a great job.

A very calm and serene capture, the soft glowing tones and light adds much to the lovely presence, I would prefer the display not having the date and your name on the image, other than that and a slight tilt, well done.

I would also, I have just been told so many times to add this. Apparently image theft is getting a bit out of hand..... Thanks for looking! Chip

Great photo, but you knew that already. ;) The horizon is slightly tilted down on the right side. Excellent foreground anchor. Are there waves? If so how about a longer exposures, say 5 sec, 10 sec, 20 sec, 40 sec?

Thanks Mark! There is a bit of a curve to the horizon, mostly due to the fact that I shot this in a bay with a pretty wide lens. It was pretty stormy, so there were waves, and some seafoam as well. Exposure was 5 sec (ISO 50, f18, 17mm). Thanks for looking! Chip

Very nice picture that gives a great sense of peace and serenity in spite of the stormy wind as you mentioned in your comment
