Thanks Lydia - it's a terrible pun but I couldn't resist using it after reading the book and watching the movie! :-D CJ

Thanks Pops - this is actually a sunrise with reflection on the lake in front of our cabin - taken OOF and with the camera's WB set to tungsten and slightly underexposed to deepen the colors. Very little processing was done on this, no saturation, just a little levels and contrast. I like the effect tungsten WB has on daylight shots. The title is just a play on words of the title of a book called "Under the Tuscan Sun" by Frances Mayes - sorry, I couldn't resist! :-) CJ

Okay, the tones are lovely, the image is reminiscent of a sunset but the title makes me wonder, "What is this?"
