Thank for a great finish once again folks! This is my very first crack at the top 10 on a member's challenge so I am just elated to grace the same page as the winners. Kudos to everyone for a job well done in this challenge. This by far has been one of the best in recent months ;)

I never realized that I had an editing and shooting style but from the comments of yanko and SJCarter, it seems that I've been had ;) And to goodman, no I never run out of sunsets ;P

Thanks again all for a strong finish ;)

...Against the paling heights afar, Gleams out like some glad angel's crown,
A yellow evening star. A very fitting verse give the yellow/golden colors.I like your chosen perspective that makes me feel I'm at waters edge or in a boat. Good luck

Beautiful reflections on the water. It draws me into the image. The fiery sky is a wonderful capture. Great job!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2006 08:51:38 PM
Great sky. It has that Rikki orange color to it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2006 04:33:32 PM
This is probably being really picky but the water level seems out by .2ccw. Its no biggy but because I've spent longer than normal looking at the pic its distracting me a touch. I do like the reflections in the water from that great sky :)

Great image... I love the reflection of the "golden sparkling glow" of the clouds, on the water.....
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2006 02:03:54 PM
This sure does look like Rikki's work... ;-) Beautiful shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2006 01:44:31 PM
Beautiful. Crisp and clear. Great colors, reflections and composition. I love how this image conjures a feeling of motion. It's as though the viewer is being drawn in while the clouds sweep by, overhead.
