I can see God in the heavens. I believe that this is my favorite photo of all time. The rays shooting across the vast sky, with the clouds threatening rain. The reflection in the foreground is the perfect touch to this amazing shot.

    Thank you so very much Linda. I am glad that you like it. Even I am astounded by what HE allows me to see. I simply push the button.

    May I send it to you to do whatever you wish? It certainly does not belong to me. HE is the architect and it is always HE that points out the scenes HE wants photographed.

It's fantastic and we had a similar sky last night. It's so pretty all over and my favorite is that you caught the rays coming through the clouds. Nice angle, excellent clarity and the reflections are incredible. Love your new phone, looking forward to many more beauties from you. Sharon/Bea226

This is stunning and your overall perspective is excellent! Perfect exposure and capture of a wonderful sunset making your sky & cloud formation magnificent and a beautiful reflection in the water. Thanks for the good artist notes. Nicely cropped and good placement of your grasses on the right side framing your photo! A pleasure to view! Thanks for sharing this most beautiful of scenes!

Absolutely stunning! And yes...I can see a difference in the 7 vs the 5! But your perspective of your chosen view or subject is always the key to a wonderful composition. The colors are playing beautifully with your light and shadows here. But your textures and clarity of your fountain grass cinches this one for me. Your placement of it in the lower right with the cloud above it gives this scene a great expansive feel in distance to your shoreline. Plus the burst of sun from behind the clouds having it's own say back there...reminds me of purple mountains majesty above the fruited plain....sigh. Gorgeous!

Is this the photo you said you were saving Steve?? I agree that this one is even better than the last one you posted from this place.

I really like how you framed the lower right w/ the Pompas grass. Definitely a good idea on your part. So...question...this being an iphone you cannot make adjustments?? I mean other than how you set it up?? I'm not familiar w/ phone cameras that's why I ask.

The sky is gorgeous and the reflections just perfect. I was going to say a tad more light on the trees would be perfect but now I'm thinking you can't make that adjustment?? Well, that iPhone does take some wonderful shots doesn't it.

Very nicely done up Steve.

    Yes this is one of them Deb.. I think it turned out very well. There are some minor adjustments you can make with the iPhone once the photo has ben taken. They are pretty basic and I have to use Smart Photo Editor to make any significant adjustments. I think you are right in that the trees could use a bit of light. I will check that out. Currently in the Galapagos and I hope to get some good shots staring tomorrow morning. Time will tell. Thank you for your very kind comments Deb ~ Steve

Comment from FBI GUY


The scene is magic. Your eye for capturing a scene is excellent. Reflections and the sunset and the tall grasses make a beautiful landscape. The hint of color on the horizon contrasts with the dark cloud in upper corner gives us a great POV. Great shot.

ok, hands down this is a seven star shot, unfortunately, I only have 6 stars to offer. Awesome job!!! The sky alone is a feast for the eyes. I love the way that you have managed to bring the earth the sea and the sky into this one magnificent shot. Wonderful!!! Thank you for sharing.
