 I took this picture the same day I took my Deja Vu III picture. I had gone back to the car to sit with our daughter so mad_brewer could go capture some pictures in the awful wind. As I was sitting in the car the sunset developed in a way that took my breath away. People were moving pretty quickly to capture the sunset with their cameras. A couple of photographers caught my eye. I loved the way the light was reflecting on the clouds and how the individuals were silhouetted. This was a spur of the moment picture. I am not sure how it will do but, hopefully well enough to end up on my top five.

the little incomplete body silhuette on the left makes this look as if it was not originally intended as a composition of silhuettes.
