A Different Kind of Sunset

Be honest...does this work at all???

I went out to shoot sunset as there were towering thunderheads and the damn things dried up just before the sun set.

I was sitting on my butt in the field and when I looked through the viewfinder....this is what I saw.

Please be honest and tell me if it s*cks.

Thanks!

You weren't supposed to say that.

Now I'm gonna have to go out and intentionally shoot these and attempt to get some real composition.

Thanks a bunch

Sorry I just call it like I see it. .. There were great clouds in the sky today here as well and I ran out to catch a great sunset . I wasn't fortunate enough to salvage anything.

I like it but my opinion is coloured I always love settings and risings

No way it sux! This shot is beautiful. I'm sure there is something to critique but who cares! You have nice colours, a good silouette and nothing really distracting the eye. I think it works well.

I love it too, very tranquil mood is inspired by it.

Jim:

Looks good to me. Sorry, I just think you became a landscape shooter besides a bird shooter. Things could be worse you know.
