 Not my best sunset, but liked the rays. Changed the levels a bit in photoshop. The image is grainy from the camera (G5), even on iso 100. I had no tripod handy at the time, so used the hand rail.

Classic example of hope. The bird's flying through was very fortunate - or well planned. Sun a bit hot - but it works fine for the way you've presented this. The rays are perfect.

Unfortunatly this is really blown out and is quite difficult to even look at. A ray of hope is a play on words it does not convey hope to me.

beautiful. the horizon is skewed, which makes the picture feel much more amature. I think a slightly wider crop at the bottom would be benificial
