Well i am not a fan of landscapes, or sunsets.. and they are much to cliche.. but here i am. I actually think they are a bit boring and cold, despite how pretty they look. Pretty isn't really an 'image' i am going for. In any case, my wife and i were on a picnic oct 31, and the sun was setting on the ocean so i took some pics. I didn't have much else to enter for this challenge, so this is what it turned out to be. I hope i don't get voted down for too much editing because i didn't really do a whole lot. perhaps i will post the orig. after the challenge.

Very nicely done. The colors are fantastic and grab your attention. you really can never go wrong with a sunset, however, on that note thats all it is a breathtaking sunset and there is nothing that makes it different from any other sunset. A bird or a boat or something to grab the eye to one certain area of this would have gave it more impact. As it is now its a pretty sunset but its just lacking that little something extra to hold your attention.
Wow. I want to live in a place this breathtaking. I'd like to see something like this as a panorama, but I don't think the choice to submit it with these proportions was wrong. It would be stunning no matter how it's presented.
Wow... is that for real? My pictures rarely look as good as the real life scene .. I would love to have seen what you saw here. Love the colors and the textures! Good luck in the challenge!
I realy realy realy like to know how you have done this.
The sky looks like it is on fire.
Never ever seen something like this.
Please tell me that you are at a 7+ now!
This is so great!
OMG. I'll have to get a print of this. I'm a Norwegian, first gen American and my parents would just love this. The incredible texture in the sky is unbelievable! Thanks for capturing such a breathtaking image and sharing it with us. Love it.
Oh man, those cloud patterns are great, especially with this toning. Of it weren't for the skyline and lake in the front I'd guess it was a photo of the great storm clouds on Jupiter.
What a sunset! I especially like how the water is so finely textured and horizontal while the clouds look like rippling waves. The pattern of the sky lloks like a magnified version of the pattern of the water surface.
