Cheyenne Bottoms Sunset

[Anita Rakestraw]

Kansas has beautiful sunsets, but it can be difficult to find something interesting to break up the usually flat horizons! :D:( Oh, well....this shows a view of one of the Cheyenne Bottoms pools this past November.

Hi Anita,
I like the feel to this. The color tones and hues are spectacular. This is simply beautiful...proud of you...:cool:

Anita, this sunset would be nothing without the spectacular clouds. The comp is great and the little mounds of grass really gives you a nice foreground. Congrats!!

[Lance Peters]

Lovely Anita - Richeard is right - those clouds put it over the top.
Goood Show :)

Love the defined edge at bottom and placement of the horizon level, well done :D

[Nonda Surratt]

Agree on the clouds but do love those grass mounds! Very, very nice!

[Anita Rakestraw]

Thank you all for the critiques. Very helpful to hear from others' points of view what works, as well as what doesn't.

Anita, The windswept clouds and the lovely color tones really make this shine.
