[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this photo on a camping trip to Wart Lake, it was stormy all day but the clouds rolled over to display a beautiful sunset. (All you could hear was the cry of loons and the odd fish surfacing, very peaceful.) I have posted a photo earlier of the same sunset, however the sun was still higher and so the colours weren't are rich yet. The colours in that picture weren't nearly as brilliant as they are in this one. In order to make the colours even more vibrant in this shot I changed the white balance to cloudy and I lowered the exposure compensation by 1 stop in order to make the colours more vibrant. I made sure I focused on a light part of the scene in order to get an overall fair exposure.

A very nice atmosphere here Ti, serene and peaceful..those Thunderhead are very impressive and you have framed this shot very well indeed. The colours are also lovely with a good job on the exposure, your technique has worked out as planned with a very good overall result!

Nice silhouette and reflections. I think I's have come out a bit to get the complete reflection in the water, but still a pleasing image.

Grand. You extracted the beauty of the nature.

Hello Ti, beautiful silhouettes in a fantastic landscape. You really knew what you were doing and mastered the situation. It really shows. The composition is beautiful, I particularly like the trees silhouette against the dark blue sky underneath the rays of sunshine. I forgot the reflection... thank you,

Hi Ti

what a great shot. I really like the sunset colours and the storm clouds over a calm lake. The really dark trees work very well.
