I just was in the mood for another sunset..:-)
So I got to my favorite vantage point and took a few shots:

The rest is here:

Canon 20D + 10-22, 17-85 and 28-135 (yes, I used all three for this little exercise:-)

All shot in RAW, some ACR processing, but no PS (too lazy:-)

Enjoy sunset shooting!

    I looked at the google map for Western Indiana - and man, there *are* only cornfields and trees...
    I guess we all need to count our blessings...
    At least you'll get some variation in the ground level next May:-)
    Thanks for looking!thumb.gif

    Nik - As I was driving to Woodranch BBQ tonight I saw the same sunset and said to myself..."I'll bet Nik is getting this."

    See, I'm not as bad as David is picturing me :): - I simply know my terrain.
    Last time it was too late, I would not get there..ne_nau.gif

    Hope your dinner was great, did you take any pikchas? (it's *always* about the food, ain't it?)

    Your totally right...Difference is you get out there and I (with cam in car) just kept driving. It takes effort to get in the right spot at the right time working our west coast light.

    Like I said....I knew you were out there.

    It's on my site, my business cards and in some sigs:
    "The art of photography mostly consists of
    being in the right place at the right time
    having the right equipment and the right attitude"
    But no worries, we had another rain today, it means we'll be getting more of that gray-white puffy stuff in the sky (I heard somebody called them "kloudz":-) as we march towards Xmas!
