Beautiful golden sunset. The sun rays coming out of the clouds add so much drama to this. Great job.

Comment by dwterry:
There's some color banding going on here (watch the colors as they circle outward towards the edges). Most likely the image is shot in jpeg mode and then individual colors (rather than all colors) were boosted in a hue/sat layer (or equivalent).

Ways to fight banding: 1) Shoot in raw, edit in 16-bit mode, 2) boost all colors (or at least adjacent colors, e.g. both blue & cyan together), 3) don't boost the color so much, 4) sometimes NeatImage (or equivalent) can cause it, so watch the color output, 5) sometimes reducing the image size for web can cause it (best bet is PhotoShop's "Save for Web").

Hope the tips help...

Maybe it's just me, but I'd like to see somebody on the beach. Just a little silhoutte of somebody. That being said, this is still a wonderful shot. Look like the colors have ben edited though.
