After shooting for about 10 hours with some great people from another forum...

I cropped a little, toned and curved a wee bit...everything is true color...

    Thanks! When one drives around the wetlands these days...the potholes filled with mud makes one feels as though you are on a wild safari in Africa!

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    The dark edges of the clouds above the sun make it look like the sun is actually setting into a valley.

    Thank You Lynn. It doesn't happen often when we have a sunset like this, and I am someplace open to view it.

    Thanks Lucky. The clouds really played into the shot well.

    Wonderful Trish

    I have tried to get similar shots and have failed terribly. My sun is ALWAYS over exposed unless the rest of the scene is totaly black.

    How did you do it?
