| Great photo...not only were you at the right place at the right time, but you were able to capture that beautifully, perfect angle at which it was shot....definitely deserving of the blue ribbon! |

| This is a really great shot, sometimes crabappl3 we make a lot of our own luck simply by keeping our eyes open. This image is a lot more than luck, brilliant composition in the box. Regards Paul Horton OZ |

Congratulations! This is a fantastic shot. You may have gotten lucky to see such a scene but you had the forethought to have your camera ready and properly take the shot. Seems like a good amount of skill to me. Way to go.

A Comment From The Critique Club
Hi Danny :)
Well, if I'm supposed to suggest areas for improvement then this is going to be a very very short critique. :)
First of, congratulations on your ribbon, it's very well deserved, this is a spectacular image. The title very aptly describes the image, I love how the sun is shining through the tree and almost gives it a halo that is then surrounded by black clouds and then above that you have yet another burst of color and rays, shooting straight up into the air.
I think that, other than the obvious dramatic quality of the photo, it is the somewhat atypical approach to a sunset that makes this shot. The vertical format is more unusual and the really dark clouds and lack of obvious horizon aren't part of the more standard sunset image, either.
The frame very nicely enhances the image. I'm always at awe when people manage to take photos that don't need a lot of tweaking, you certainly did that, too.
Again, congratulations on a very well deserved ribbon :)
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments about this review.
Franziska. |

Thanks everyone for your kind words and votes. This was one of those times that when you look through the viewfinder that you know you've captured a special moment in time. There are two outtakes in my portfolio that were equally as spectacular.
Thanks again!

| Beautiful capture of this rare moment. Would look great as a poster print. Before you create that though, I would recommend trying to reduce some of the noise in the bank of clouds above the bush. |
