reach..

Here is one I took@ about an hour before sunset. The sun went behind some clouds and the sky looked really cool. This was shot in a cemetery from the late 1800s.

Very nice. On my monitor, the foreground branches seem dark gray versus solid black. I'd like to see them solid black for a complete sillouhette (sp?). But that's me being nitpicky.

Very nice.

That's what I get for not looking it up... oh well. That's why I make pictures instead of teach english.

sorry to be so unconstructive, but my initial reaction to this photograph is "who cares".

Lopp,

I'm getting use to your comments and lack of constructive input.
Thanks

The sky is beautiful - looks like it's just past that moment where it's really vibrant orangeredgoldetc... where it's a bit more husky. Love the white bit right underneath the dark clouds near the top. Great sky moment.

What I don't care for as much is the branches like a fence across the shot. I'd love a bit of a window - where the branches aren't blocking the view. I think I see what you were going for in the shot - the branches (or whatever they are) do appear to be reaching for the sky. It's a nice idea.

Overall - a very nifty shot and I could see myself trying to take similar shots.
