Light and Dark Sunset

[Judy Howle]

One side lighter. I evened them out a good bit... f4, 1/60s, ISO 640 - 5D Mk II & 24 - 105 lens
I used Topaz Adjust and shadow/highlight and masking.

Another nice image, Judy.
The pano crop works really well and the colors are beautiful.
I like the color fade from right to left.

Thanks Dan!

Hi Judy, As usual...beautiful light! However, in this image what is troubling me is the large black landmass and reflection that has very little detail other than the treetops. In this case the center of interest has become the black mass and not the clouds or sunset...

[Rachel Hollander]

Hi Judy, lovely colors as usual. I tend to agree with Dave on this one that the large black area, lacking detail doesn't do it for me.

TFS,
Rachel

Thanks Dave and Rachel. I agree about the black area. I was running out of more interesting photos to post with no good sunsets lately. :w3

Not that I disagree with Dave, but I like the shape of the landmass and its reflection - like an elongated diamond. I find the geometric proportions help the composition a lot.

Thanks Robert. That was one of the things I liked about it also.
