Fire Sky

Taken in July, when we typically get these bright orange sunsets, this was something else altogether! The flash of color was so spectacular and lingered a long time. The gradient of color in this shot is what impressed me, this being after sunset.

GH3, 100-300 @ 100mm = 200mm equivalent in 35mm format. f8, 1/60, -0.33EV, ISO 1250.

Comments always appreciated. Thank you.

Beautiful Catherine. The many shades of oranges and pinks are really nice. Nice capture!

Catherine, the colors are astonishingly red and the gradation adds nicely. The trees at the bottom are a good touch of reality here.

Ditto Catherine - what a superb colour gradient, plus including the silhouetted trees adds some important grounding and context. :toast:
