Time to be Joyful Photo

Photographer’s Note

6.00 p.m. - Sunset scenes are not an uncommon sight on TE. The surprises, intense fleeting change of colours and the feeling of peace and wonderment associated with it are the reasons why they are so popular.
We all look forward to sunset as it also means a time for us to relax after a hard days work. I will be taking a couple of weeks off for the Xmas break to be with my children.
Like this sunset scene, the year is fast coming to a close but let the warmth reminds us of our effort in making this world a more loving and peaceful place to live. I know it can be biting cold in some places by now, so hopefully this would make you feel warmer.

I am wishing all Christian friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Joyeux Noel.
Have a great holiday!!!

This shot was taken from the Jubilee Park at Bandar Seri Begawan overlooking the Kedayan River with Kiulap in the distance.

Hi Aloysius,
A wonderful calm and serene sunset snap. The silhouette of the branches played the real trick here.

I like this sunset view, vivid colors and sharp. You have composed it well, around framing of trees and grass as FG, and silhouette BG. The warm light on the clouds and water is a nice element here. Well done.

TFS, cheers, bill

Hello Aloysius,
A lovely scenery, so peaceful and appealing!
Colours and details are attractive, and the foliage in front is captured with fine sharpness...
The play of light is always the main feature in a sunset and this is beautiful in that sense!

sunny moods are various and all are pleasant
this is full of quiet end of day feelings and since it also includes good framing elements is full of interest as well
the interesting thing about any sunset is not the sun but its prescence in other items..which you have skillfully included
cheers
