On my way home last Friday night there was a beautiful sunset. I was in an awful place to take an uncluttered photo, but gave it my best shot. This was the result.

    It looks to me that you got the best from a bad situation.

    yeah, the "civilization" in the foreground didn't do you any favors, but oh, that sky! marvelous! sometimes we gotta take what we can get, and this one was well worth it...

    It looks like you could take a knife and cut into this like frosting! Way cool!

    Wow, that one is very nice. Love the shape and smooth texture of the clouds. Incredible.

    Spectacular shot! the depth of the colors in the sky almost makes you ignore everything else in the picture. clap.gif

    Spectactular sunset, Ron! Personally, I don't mind the cluttered foreground. I hardly ever get to enjoy this time of the day, or the opportunity to run errands and enjoy the weather so I love this everyday scene at The Perfect Moment of the Day. :ivar
