Photographer’s Note
Hello to all TE friends,
Sharing this fire in the sky which captured over the my house deck this morning when the sun tried to penetrate through the clouds, It happened so fast that only lasted few minutes and it's gone!
Some of you might be interest to know that we will end the day light saving tonight, and we will turn our clock back 1 hour at 0200am(NZ time)06 april(sunday) as we are now getting into autumn!
Hope you like it and many thanks for viewing and time!
Have a good sunday!

Hi!
Good picture, great colors making a brilliant contarst to each other. The different tones of read are amazing. Good idea to show so much of the beautiful sky and just a little part of the landscape. Sharpness is good and I like your point of view.
Well done!

Hi Tony,
This is an amazing view which fantastic colours!! It shows the incredible immensity of the sky
and I like the landscape which offers a great contrast, like chinese shadows.
Personnally, I think I would have 'swithced off' the small white lamps in this dark part to enhance this impression.
Regards,
Marianne

Hello Tony,
What a good job you were able to capture this before it disappeared so rapidly!
The sky looks like molten metal! Amazing colours!
I like how the silhouetted tree in the distance appears to be touching the lower clouds!
Nice composition!
Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Tony
Wonderful sunset you captured for us. The shinned clouds are splendid and the trees dark image against a light background with some lights' dots of the city are well placed in this picture. It's a great work. Best regards, Consuelo

so, the sky turns fiery in the fall not only in the northern hemisphere? ;) good to know we're not alone in that :)) jokes aside, i like this sight. this kind of sky always inspires some sensation of awe and so does your capture of it.

Hi Tony,
What a marvelous golden sky with lovely soft textured clouds and bits of complimenting blue. Very soothing late summer scene. As you leave summer behind we leave winter behind. I look forward to some colorful autumn images to come.

The sky seems to be in flames and the clouds seem a blanket covering the city... Fantastic work! Always it is worth the trouble to rise soon and to take the camera!

Hello Tony. Stunning image with fire in the sky. The fire looks very real making it looks like it is going to drop on earth. Very well captured with the silhouette making the perspective that you are on earth. Thanks for the email and I really appreciate that we can share the experience. Regards. Jusni

Hello my friend Tony
The title of the collection, could not be more appropriate.
An incandescent magnificent, a beautiful sunset of your own wonderful islands. The frame holds a large balance in the composition and shapes of the clouds, reinforcing the scene in a very natural.

Hi Tony,
Wow!! What a magnificent scene!! It is an unique and unrepeatable moment very well caught in your setting. The title is perfect to accompany this image, really the sky seems to be burning, has a few amazing, very beautiful tones.
And the silhouettes in FG add a great graphical balance to this magnificent composition. Congrats!
This photo has to be with my favorites.
Best regards,

Hi Tony,
we did the change to summer time a week before but the spring waits as we got snow back. Great light and clouds, I really love those views and the tree line as silhouette is a good ground for that impression. Great managed exposure.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hi Tony,
in Greece, we are almost into spring and we already have set 1 hour forth at 30 March.
The cloured cloudy sky is amazing! You captured at the right moment this beautiful view. The texture of the clouds is magnificent, I enjoy very much your post, my friend.

Athanasios.

Hello Tony,
An entirely apt title for this astonishing sunrise. In the Northern Hemisphere we use the mnemonic "Fall Back" and "Spring Forward" to remember in which direction we have to adjust our watches. Of course, our fall coincides with your spring, and vice versa. Accordingly, just recently we turned our clocks forward 1 hour, while you were turning yours back 1 hour.
I like the vantage point where the trees and ground are at the bottom of the frame, and the extraordinary sky takes up 90% of the frame. First rate image.
Warm regards,
Bulent

Hello Tony,
Amazing colours combined with the fine pattern in the veil of clouds makes this a very attractive frame!
The silhouetted trees create a foundation for the composition...
