Nice shot, but a stretch to fit the theme. Technically, any photograph is taken through the transparent atmosphere. It's not totally off topic since it is refraction off the dust in the atmosphere that creates the strong colors of a sunset, but I don't think it fully meets the spirit of the challenge either.
beautiful photo! i also think it's not too bad as "transparency". i see how the photo was taken to really try to show transparent atmosphere and not only a sunset.
Gorgeous picture, love the saturated colors. The bird adds a nice effect too. You've probably gotten some comments about transparency and atmosphere, huh? karmat
A bit of a stretch on the topic, but it fulfills the role of the obligatory sunset shot j/k Nice photo, but as for transparency, it doesn't quite work.
Could be considered borderline transparency, but I admire your guts, plus this is an outrageously beautiful shot. Great reds/yellows/oranges! Photo 9 Transparency 7 total 8 swash
Beautiful capture of a sunset. Very bad picture for this challenge. I could have taken a picture of anything and said "transparent air". You are gonna have to try harder than this for me to give you a better grade.
Very sharp shot...but... transparency is the topic and this photo doesn't even begin to be on topic. Although I do think you did an excellent job with the contrast and and depth of field as well as the overall composition of the shot. In another topic or just in general i would give it a 6.75 to a 7 but in all fairness to those who put the effort into the challenge I had to score it a 2. Good job though.
This is a beautiful sunset... if this was a sunset challenge, I would be voting high. Without your title, this photo doesn't say 'transparency' to me at all. = 3 - jmsetzler
