 This was taken in Darwin, Australia. There were many forest fires around this particular area and this made the sunset extremely unusual. All I did was under expose the picture to get the great silhouette of the boat in the water and erase all the detail. This is one of my favorite shots I have taken due to its uniqueness. The photo is completely UNEDITED!! That’s how much the forest fire affected the colours!

Cool shot for an unedited version but I think you're going to have a hard time against the multi-image people. Good luck

There's nothing like smoke to provide a nice diffused light! This has a great sense of timing and the colors are, of course, beautiful! << 7 >>

I like this photograph because the longer you look at it, more detail is revealed. Great capture.

Nice shot - Like the tones - and composition - Maybe a little more richness in the blacks could add some saturation. Nice image very stock worthy

no need to write your editing (or non-editing) into the image title, I bet you will lose points for that. besides that, a well composed shot. focus is a bit off IMO
