    Fantastic images, Dave! The first two are definitely the picks of the litter here. Wonderful compositions, with great light and colors. clap.gifthumb.gif
    Shoot in RAW because memory is cheap but memories are priceless.

    So nice! I have yet to see the sun actually over the Pacific as it's so foggy up on the north coast but these images are so refreshing. Awesome colors!

    Nice set overall. I particularly like #2 and #5. The misty effect in the waves is nicely done in #2. Didi you get that with a single long exposure or multiple shorter exposures that you stacked?

    Very nice sunsets. I also like the first two, but also think that #5 is pretty cool also. I really like the detail in the shoreline.
