[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is my favorite sunset photo taken from Caesarea old city.

About Caesarea:
"Caesarea Palaestina, also called Caesarea Maritima, a town built by Herod the Great about 25 –13 BC, lies on the sea-coast of Israel about halfway between Tel Aviv and Haifa, on the site of a place previously called Pyrgos Stratonos ("Strato" or "Straton's Tower," in Latin Turris Stratonis). Caesarea Palaestina should not be confused with other cities named to flatter the Caesar, Caesarea Philippi, in the Golan Heights, or Caesarea Mazaca in Anatolian Cappadocia."

Quoted from Wikipedia.

Post-Processing:
1. Rotate
I've decided not to do any additional processing, since I believe the photo looks the best as it was taken.
I had to rotate it since it was a bit twisted, since my Canon A75 viewfinder is also twisted, which results in many twisted photos I took.

Nice sunset. I would like to crop more on bottom of pic to centre to the sunlights and cloud and reduce the bright to get the sunlight more setoff.
Regards,
DT.

Nice sunset. I like how the sun rays just beam out from behind the cloud. The little detail with the ship is very good, reminding us how small we are, when the light from above show its glance.

Cheers,

Christian
