Tim, this is a stunning shot. Thanks for your kind words about one of my sunsets -- unlike mine I'm glad you did yours in colour. (btw most of mine have now been reposted cos I've had some time to fiddle with teh levels a bit in photoshop)
This one of the most spectacular sunsets I've seen you make, Tim. Your vertical frame intensifies the stacking of these layers, and the wisps of clouds connecting the red layer to the black layer, on that field of gold, make it work. It represents a celebration of life to me -- the curtain of blackness is lifted, to reveal the treasure of gold and the passion of red.
