Sunset loss

My landscape image of the sunset didn’t win in last nights South Jersey Camera Club competition, but that’s OK, because the judge had lots of nice things to say about the image. People in the east coast don’t appreciate the fact that a sunset could be this dynamic, they think that I saturated the colors or used HDR or Nik Color toning which I usually have to use because of the bad atmospheric conditions here.

Because of Photoshop, people are going to have a hard time thinking about whats real and what fake.

Location Sarasota FL bay near the Gulf of Mexico.

This sunset was a special moment when all my days energy was spent and there was only silence and peace. Its sad think that this beautiful area might not be as beautiful any more as gallons oil is pumped into the gulf of Mexico by BP.

What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.
