Sunset over Baltic Sea, a photo from Pomorskie, West

Photographer's Note

The Baltic Sea is positioned in Northern Europe and bordered by Sweden (a part of the Scandinavian Peninsula), Finland, Russia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, northeastern Germany, and eastern Denmark and its numerous islands.In the north, above the Aland Islands, the Baltic Sea is referred to as the Gulf of Bothnia. In the east, the Gulf of Finland connects the Baltic Sea to St. Petersburg, Russia. In the south and southeast it forms two small gulfs, including the Gulf of Gdansk and the Gulf of Riga.
The definitive western end of the Baltic Sea is difficult to determine, as well as indicate on the map, but in general terms its waters flow on through Kattegat Bay into the Skagerrak Strait, and then merge with the North Sea. Estimating the size of the Baltic Sea is based on where the sea actually ends, so all known measurements are estimates, at best. Wikipedia references a surface area of 377,000 sq km, while Baltic Resources uses 375,600 sq km. Average depth runs near 55 meters (180 ft), while the maximum depth is measured at 459 meters (1,506 ft).

Hello Grzegorz,
This is a spectacular sunset. I like the way that the pink tones pick up detail in the clouds, sand and waves. Very well photographed.

Witaj Grzegorz,
Ten zachod slonca jest zdumiewajaco przepiekny. Te nisamowite kolory, swiatlo odbicie w falach wraz kolory na horyzontcie jest to niesamowity efekt. Mozna byloby podziwiac godzinami zeby sie tak dluzej to slonko zatrzymalo. Niesamowicie piekny zachod. Gratuluje wspanialej pracy oraz wspanialej chwili ktora wykorzystales perfekcyjnie. Moje gratulacje. Brawo!!!!!!!
Serdecznie pozdrawiam,
Barbara

Hi Greg,
It would be easy to say, 'Oh not another sunset', 'we've all seen 'em', and 'there are too many on TE' and, and, and..

But this is special. Unusual colours, not the likely orange and yellows, and the angle you have chosen the water on the shore, and those clouds make for a very new view, for me, at least.

Glorious form the sun on the extrem left to the near night to the right - lovely.

Hello Gregg - The clouds are beautifully lit by the setting sun and they pull us into the image towards the horizon, giving excellent depth to the shot. The colours are gorgeous. Warm regards rosemary

Hi Grzegorz,
I think it's an amazing picture. Just love the way all parts of it are in sync - the shoreline, the waves and the clouds forming a similar pattern in the sky. The sci fi colors are super and the setting sun even looks like a flying saucer a bit, never seen it have a shape like this:)) Great work.
My best regards
Marina
