Photographer’s Note

Close up of downtown Miami as seen from Miami Beach. I was standing on McArthur Bridge. The first Fiery Hour photo includes the bridge's pathway on the left.

Hi Maryori,
Miami, one of my favorite cities, didn`t see that much of it, but I really liked it, mostly for its weather ;-)
It looks beautiful for sure how you present it, this sunset is simply stunning, great colors! Nice reflections on the water, well captured, beautiful one!

Take care
Mark

Hola
Esta foto es muy especial, has conseguido un momento tan dramático y a la vez lleno de movimiento y vida. La última hora de la luz del sol es muy trágica, acentuada aquí con el laberinto de edificios.
Bravo, por la luz, la originalidad y el ambiente, que parece que el cielo está gritando.

Saludos, y suerte con todo. Cuídate.
Álvaro

Hi Maryori,
Fantastic orange and purple sky seen looming over the impressive Miami skyline that makes a striking reflection in the calm waters below.
the long bridge makes a great divider in this fine fiery image.

Maryori,
Well, normally it would have been a blue hour shot, but this is red hot. I almost think that you may have over saturated it, but I know sometimes it can be this way and I have seen it myself. It's amazing what kind of show mother nature can put on. Anyway, over saturaed or not doesn't matter for this shot. It's just beautiful and demands attention. Thanks

Hi Maryori,

a true blast of red!
So intense, so striking. It screams in gallery: look at meeeeeee! I'm sooo georgeus!!!!!! :)
It really is most eye catching photo. A true delight to look at. You just cannot be left untouched by it.
Love the dark cityscape of yellow and red lights on perfect red canvas.
Simply great!

My best,
Jeri

hello Maryori

No, I would not wish to skip this fine photo of sunset that is making this city skyline view very impressive. I like the city lights showing up so nicely even competing with the natural sunset color.

Very nice to see the reflection on the water. Perhaps the sharpness could have been sharper with higher f/stop. A great composition.

Really a fine TE post. Great shot.

tfs, bill

Hi Colombiana. Magical colours and splendid light, both man made and natural. The two worlds come together here in an harmonious way. Excellent management of difficult conditions. The whole image is vibrating with light and colour. Bravo. Regards. Klaudio.
