Beautiful colors and cool silhouette. Sky is a wee bit grainy but these less than ideal lighting conditions are tricky (I haven't figured them out yet anyway). I bet your fishing buddy loves this shot (assuming this is him). Posting for challenges on this site is a blast but sometimes results in goofy meaningless shots in the long run. It's great when you can take one like this that is special beyond obtaining a decent score. Well done.
