    Amazing golden glow in these shots MA. I love the first shot.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    I quite like the first one with the really unusual colouring...very different.

    1/8000 seems like a lightning fast shutter speed here...can I ask why so high for a sunset shot?

    Does the result not speak for itself? That's SOOC other than a very slight saturation.

    Basically by using a very higher shutter speed (I could have chosen a higher f-stop and slower shutter speed of maybe 1/4000th or less) I only capture the brightest part of the scene and relegate the rest into darkness. Some people don't like that so much, but I do, so I do
    The result is a stark area of colour against a definitive area of darkness which contrasts it.
