[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I spotted this scene while returning to my beach-side hut from a day of travelling around the island of Langkawi. Several thin rows of trees were all that separated me from the water and this colourful sunset.

Though the exposure was a few seconds long, the palm branches are relatively sharp as the wind was low. My only regret is that I didn't shoot this on slide film!

The palmtrees' silhouettes against the beautiful colours of the sunset are wonderful. Well done!

Kind of a surreal feel to this one. Did you adjust anything in photoshop? i think you could really bring out the saturation in this image if you did.

You got no complaint from me.You did well in getting this silhouette especially when the background is in deep blue with slight pink on the horizon.Pretty Asian sunset don't you think. Good composition Dennis.
