I've said it before, but I'll say it again. I don't know how you think of these things Nico. Very clever and very good. Regards, Michael

Great 'place holder' Nico.... :-) You are skilled at creative lighting, that of course is what photography is all about! Very creative ~ Regards Bob

a really great and creative image!! the image brings to mind some clever photoshop work, but with your explanation, it deserves credit simply for your patience in setting it all up!! shu

I am "slightly" bowled over over by the generous and gracious comments. It is definitely only a place-holder... until I can (hopefully) find a gap to shoot a classic African sunset. Ingredients: dark room; white plastic globe, flash (with red gel) aimed at white globe so that the globe is lit brightly red; a shallow dish of water in front of the globe; finger with which to cause ripples in water; camera mounted on tripod very close to water's surface; repeat numerous times or until satisfied whichever comes first, usually numerous comes first. I don't even think it counts as a sunset, to be honest ... to me it looks more like a red moon rising. Regards Nico

Nico, I'm green with envy of your lighting. Your sunset is total "Coolness" ;-) Danny Boy
