fizzled

this sky seemed a bit eerie as it brought back memories of a similar scene a few years ago up in Salmon Arm when a forest fire was burning nearby...in fact though it is another failed sunset...with the wispy clouds at the end of a sunny day I thought we might get one of the rare fiery evening skies, but in the end it fizzled out

I don't think its failed at all. I would be very happy to have captured this. Wonderful comp and great color and light. The clouds really make it. ~BV~

Not a failed sunset at all --- the muted color and cloud detail are wonderful. Nice comp as well.

I think you caught a marvelous end of the day scene here, very serene, very enchanting. V

Even so, I still love the shape of those cloud wisps and their diagonal rising against the horizon. V
Mairéad27-May-2012 21:42
Nothing disappointing about that - love the different cloud shapes drifting across the sky. V

I think it's beautiful. The red is superb against the dark and the sun reflected or behind the high clouds is quite dramatic. V.

Looks great, especially like the wispy clouds.
Colin Storey27-May-2012 20:33
it still makes for a great image with that fantastic moody sky. v

The colors might have fizzled but it's still a pretty sunset. Better than watching TV! The silhouette of the gently rolling land mass and the interesting sky make the shot a winner in my book. V

It may be a failure but it's a good looking sky to me! V.

An ominous looking sky. Very beautiful for a fizzle. "V"

Magnifique avec ce ciel et cette lumière. V

Its a lovely scene, David. The dark wispy clouds against the golden sky and the burnished reflection in the water are very pleasing. V
Bryan Murahashi27-May-2012 15:41
Still beautiful as a peaceful end of the day. V
