With clear skies all evening I wasn't expecting to get that great of a sunset photo. I definitely got more then I was expecting.

Scott,

Saw this on your FB. #1 takes the cake for me. The composition and colors are both excellent. Water is silky smooth. Another excellent series Scott.

Hey Scott,

Very cool work here, I sure like that view! Like Jason #1 takes the cake for me. Just can't resist that tasty color in it.

I decided to add a little punch to the first image. Thoughts?

Two beautiful images Scott, to me your original first image seems to have more depth to it, and a very natural feel,IMHOO

From one Scott to another, your images are always top-notch
As are all the beautiful variations above
Is this tastefully done HDR?
Looks great

Wow! These are great Scott! Nothing wrong with a little "punch" either!

Scott-
The punched-up revision looks a bit unreal on my monitor.
But I really like the first two; they are colorful- yet believable, and excellent in all ways.

Thank you Ray. I agree. I processed #1 to looks as close to actually being there as I could. To me it is exactly how I saw it. I did enlarge the moon slightly to compensate for the UWA lens making it look so small.

Thank you very much Scoot?

Typo or on purpose?

No HDR here. I did blend in a little bit of the hot areas in the sky with another exposure and the same for a few dark areas to help reduce noise.

Just a really well-balanced and exquisite scene. Nice work.

Second rendition works well for me (viewed on my NEC 2490WUXi2 at 6500k, 2.2 gamma; I believe most are probably not viewing on a similar display). But I like strong colors and find you need that extra bump when printing, and also when converting to jpeg. Colors always seem to be a bit more over the top on upload to this particular site (don't know if there's some default color adjustment going on or if it's just in my head).

Anyway, outstanding image.

Great shots - I like rendition #2, all except the falling water - it gets a little too yellow IMO, but mask it out and you got a winner!

I prefer the shot taken after sunset, but then I'm a sucker for twilight.

Great composition.
