I just wasted 5 minutes looking for the big sunset thread and couldn't find it. Here's one if you're into that kind of thing....

Luke,

It's hard to imagine who would not be into "that sort of thing" . . . it's a bit like saying "well, if you like beauty" . . . that shot is just gorgeous and it looks to me like it could be a painting.

As you know, Luke, I am a bona fide, unrepentant, not-in-the-12-step-program sky freak, and I would be proud to have taken that shot.

On a related note, i am amazed at the number of times I have seen skies that look, frankly, unreal. My wife and I visited a model railroading club a few years ago, and one of the members had airbrushed a sky on the wall behind the layout. I thought at the time, "skies don't look like that." Well, a couple of nights ago, I saw a sky that looked just that way. We lived in Plainfield, NH, some decades ago. That's where the painter Maxfield Parrish had his studio. the skies in his paintings have a unique look to them that I never thought was real until I lived in Plainfield and saw the sunsets there.

Anyhow, ya done good, and Richard is right; it's time to roll the trucks.

Cheers, Jock
 
I love skies! The variations in colors and patterns are endless!
Too bad I don't have a Panasonic. ;-)
