This is the sundown analogue to my earlier "Daddy, Where do clouds come from?" submission. http://www3.photosig.com/viewphoto.php?id=623350

It was actually taken at about the same time as the previous photo, but I had some kind of wierd manual setting on the camera and it turned out looking like night instead of day, and I thought it was kind of dramatic this way.

I did a mirror image in PSP to make it look like sundown instead of sunrise in terms of east-west orientation..

Wonderfully creative shot, very well seen and proficiently captured, Robert. Some people might say you were "lucky" to be there at the right time. I say that people with "an eye for the shot" make their own luck. You made your own great luck on this superb image. Very nicely done!

I like the fact that you didn't crop the sides. This one needs the space. The title for the previous version is superb. /Jacob

Very interesting shot. Colours are good and the steam/smoke quite dramatic.

Very nice and strong tones. A bit too dark. What do you think of Trail to home?
