Sunset over Sola, a photo from Rogaland, South

Photographer's Note

This was shot the day after the last photo, I was on my way home from work, and stoped to shot this. It was a bit misty, so the forests are a bit hazy... I croped this to a panorama to avoid showing the road and the road signs in the botom of the original image. I allso increased the contrast in auto contrast.

Hi Halgier,
I find the lack of focus in this image a little disappointing because I'm sure it would look really stunning if the trees in the foreground had more definition. The red flare towards the left of the pic is a little distracting as well. Maybe you intended to present the image like this but it doesn't really work so well for me.
Having said that, I love the colours and the image was well composed, as I've come to expect from you. The way you've cropped it works well too.

Hugs,
Tony

Hi Halgeir, A beautiful scene and a well composed picture to see the sun hiding away with the beautiful colors. I enjoy the view of different layers from foreground to the background. There are a few problems to this picture: (1) All subjects are blurred in the picture; (2) There is a lens flare. Overall, this is still an enjoyable picture.

Lovely composition! I like the placement of the sun here, and it works very well with the panoramic format...
Great colours, could make me believe this is far closer to tropics...
Bit soft, but I don't think it matters that much there isn't much here that need to be sharp
Greetings,

Wonderful colours, the perfect red ball of the sun fits well into this photo. Just too bad that the scenery in the foreground is out of focus.
The red flare off to the left disturbes a lot, but the rest of the photo seems very good.
I want make a workshop of this one, please tell me what you think.
