a beautiful sunset you can almost feel the warmth from the setting sun, the hills and
grasses stand out in clearly in silhouette against the colour, great light in the sky
picking up the circling birds,
the clouds look like their on fire, lovely moment captured.

Nice rich capture Top. The angle of the shot of this terrain with glowing sunset is great. The clarity is great btje capture of the light is excellent. The image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall.

Wow this is so relaxingto view. It has serenity and artistic presentation. A fine capture of a glorious sky. Your colours saturation is very good. The angle to capture those reeds in the water is excellent. The clouds are perfectly captured. That light outline can cause problems for me, often too bright but this shows it perfectly.

a very beautiful sunset scene Steve, I prticularly like how the clouds at the top are lighten by the seting sun; good composition with the vegetation in the foreground, increasing the depth;

A beautiful orange and yellow glow in the sunset as the sun goes down behind the mountains and the birds glide in the distance. The clouds are like a Heavenly Crown lit up by the golden glow. Lovely reflection on the water with the silhouetted foliage. A pleasure to view!

Steve, I am unfortunately out of 6's. This is the most beautiful photograph on this site, or any other site. The magnificence of God is flooding every inch of this scene. I have been so distraught since my daughter's death. Dis-heartened. But your vision of our God has brought new light to my soul.

    Linda,

    When my younger and only brother died in an accident I told God that HE had made a mistake. HE should have taken me instead. I felt this way for many years.

    Then one day a friend asked "If you could have given your brother anything what would it have been"? After much thought it came to me: I would give him Eternal Bliss, to be held in the Light of God, to Behold the Beatific Vision. To be where a day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is as a day. Timeless and Forever Present with HIM. It was then that I realized that if I had my wish it would be that he died First. There is no greater gift that I could wish for him. I also realized that the Greatest Tribute that I can give him is to grieve and ache at his loss. I would not want him to be left to ache for me. Oh how he must so appreciate that.

    So I am to remain here for some reason. Apparently God has things that HE needs to do through me. I truly believe it is the same with you my Spiritual Friend. I can see all the good you have done for others by using the Artistic Talent HE has given you. HE gave it to you so that, as a Good and Faithful Servant, you can give it away. I have no doubt that you daughter is so Very Proud of you as she watches you doing HIS Will. And for her it will only be an instant when you two are together once again in Bliss and together you will both gaze upon HIM forever.

    Thank you so much for your review my Spiritual friend ~ Steve

Well after a very productive day I'm feeling a bit artsy so I am telling you this is a stunning image. What I find really amazing is the Sun. Its glow is large, and there is no area of a whiteout, or brightness that is too much.
You have achieved a perfect glow that radiates from the excellent off centered Sun.
FS...You are a Master of the Sun...Unlike myself who is a Mistress of the Moon...LOL.
To Infinity....Like a picture...
I also like the floating birds but think they are a bit hard to see in the small figure...
Beautiful when blown up!
Fabulous capture FS...
Always a pleasure to see your magnificent sunsets.

    Thank you so very much VO for your wonderful review. es the glow was just right that evening. You are right that the birds are a bit small and hard to see. I think I was just lucky that the birds were in the sky near the sun. Anyway I do so appreciate your artistic review and More than generous rating. Thank you VO ~ FS

This mixed media is impressive. The sun-glow in the background reminds me of an exploding volcano. The reflections on the clouds and the wet sand are fascinating. The mountains in the background attained a gray gleam from the last light of the day. The contradiction of the colors with gray mountains and the dark silhouettes of the reed-grass is enthralling. The seascape is perfect composed and framed. The composition is balanced.
