Anne from White Rock, Canada
Another stunner Jerry! The clouds and reflections pick up the added colour beautifully. RAW is just fantastic. I've found I can do a lot more with it than the JPEG's that come out of my camera. I'd like to get some sunsets near the sea, but our beach faces south, and the sun actually disappears behind a headland, long before it's low enough to be setting. Oh! well! Maybe I'll be into the city and get one where the beach faces west some day! It doesn't have the same effect going down through trees!
Glad you are back posting - are you OK, or have you been away or busy? This Dandelion is a RAW photo to start with and I was able to make it an eye-popping yellow. :)

@Anne: Thanks Anne!!! I knew you would love RAW.... your images will tell!! Have fun my friend!!!
I was kinda wiped out last week with the Virginia Tech tragedy (lost my motivation for a few days) and I found out I will have to have my hip replaced in June - so much for wild man Jerry....I'm fine now and looking forward to getting rid of all this pain....so Linda and I will go be crazy on the motorcycle in the mountains in May for 9 days and then I'll get all fixed up!

Lia from Atlanta, United States
This shot is breathtaking! One of the best sunrise shots I've seen. You have captured some very interesting colors here, such as different shades of purple and blue (usually I've seen pink and orange). Great idea to capture part of the board walk on the left side, it gives the sense of depth in the picture. Finally the sun's reflection in the water is excellent with not much glare. Again awesome shot!
28 Apr 2007 4:44pm
@Lia: WOW! Many thanks Lia! You are far too generous, but I certainly appreciate the kind remarks!!! :-))
@Michelle: Thanks Michelle - Mother Nature always provides the best light shows!!! I appreciate the encouragement!!
@Daniel: Thanks Daniel - I certainly appreciate the kind remarks! :-))
Kym Griffiths from Australia
What a fantastic sunset, you really captured this well! And I love the lone figure off to the side - you don't notice him straight away becase of all that intense color, but he adds a bit of story to it.

@Kym Griffiths: Thanks Kym! I certainly appreciate the encouragement!!! :-))
@shahab: Thank you shahab! I appreciate the kind remarks! Come on over and see us!!!
