Had some good light the other day. Got quite a few shots all of which were good, but this was one of the stand outs for me.

This is a spectacular moment, with wonderful color; and the crepuscular rays are amazing.

However, you posted another on Flickr which appeals to me even more. There's something about the colored lights in the industrial structures which (for me) emphasizes the "otherworldly" quality of this scene.

What great fun you must have had that evening!

As you all probably are aware, I am not a fan of sunsets. However, this one is done creatively and it surely stands out. Like April, I like these deep colors and 3-dimensionality of clouds.

I think my idea of shooting sunsets is to make it look a little different. Not just about the sun setting but light play within the whole image. Here is one which is similar, but in landscape form, to the other shot. I think the industrial subject gets more of a showing in this one and perhaps balances out the photograph as a whole. Its less about the sun setting, and more an exploration of light and darkness. There are things to see in the light and there are things to explore in the darkness. As usual click the image for the larger in black photograph.
