An artistic sunset Photo

Photographer’s Note

I waited until the sun came down completly, then the sky became red from the last beems and it looked like someone took a brush and painted the sky and didn't finish the job :-)

Gold splashes! This is a nice simple picture. Looking at it very thoroughly, I discover so many fine details. I like the sand relection the most...it echoes the top part of the picture.

Wooow! It looks like a sea is a melted tar ...
...in a combination with a firesky & clouds!
Very nice cloudy-dance. I think, this capture could be possible to make it only in Izrael! :o) It`s so magical...

Looks indeed like a strange painting. Sunsets come in many flavours and this is one I haven't seen yet. Beautiful light and patterns.

Colors and clouds are amazing here. That was really a good idea to wait until the sun came down! Bravo, Elroyie!

Great shot indeed - I like the way the water seams to flow over that light - and yes the paint brush work in the sky looks great - real fine capture and work Elroyie.

This is indeed a very special sunset. We see many sunsets on TE but this one is really special to me in terms of color and composition.Very nice shot.

Sunset shots are so often best taken after the sun itself has disappeared and this is no exception. A gorgeous sky Elroyie especially the whispy clouds and colour high in the sky. The amount of detail in the water and sand is just right. A lovely shot!

Good shot!^^

I afully agree with your title Elroyie! That's an artistic one. Simply composed but efficient. Excellent exposition (it could even be darker), very nice colours. The water seems frozen and the sky is just wonderful. Very nice catch, very well done.

The gray clouds are simply superb!, they do look like a painter's brush. Great catch!

Looks like every thing is on fire
But in a positive way
The composition of the sky water and sand is very nice balanced
