Wonderful capture of the light. Pulled me into the shot, the longer I looked, the more dreamlike it became.

Missed you here Philip! Glad you posted again and thankfully it is a stuning image. Wonderful light indeed and the movement from blue to orange as the eye gets led towards the sun is beautiful. (Well done on beating me by one spot :-) )

Phew! Wonderful color gradient. The far clouds are delightfully ablaze. A very nice scene. I would've cropped it a little on the right to push the sun to 2/3rds.

Beautiful shot. The lighting and detail of the rock in the foreground really makes this image, and provides a nice leading frame to take you in. The bluff on the right provides a nice alternative frame as well. Great stuff.
