Photographer's Note
There's something about a beautiful sunset that makes the travel experience complete, the perfect end to a perfect day. Psychologists say that a sunset can boost well-being and enhance life satisfaction. According to data recently gathered by SpaSeekers, a whopping 286 million images of sunsets were uploaded to Instagram over the last year.
Although the Nil is not in the top 10 in the list of places with the most beautiful sunsets in the world, the sunsets were impressive for me.

Hi Ecmel,
Charmin sunset view. Reflections on the river look good. Those bushes and grasses are nice features, and so are those palm tops in the background. The boat is well placed.

Hello Ecmel
I agree with your note. They bring a sense of closure to the day. Here on the east coast of Florida it is the sunrises that we see. My feelings are for the chance to enjoy another day that God has given me. Either case there is good time to reflect on ones life. I see great hues and interesting capture of the fishermen maybe returning home after a long day of working. nice capture and emotion in the note to bring the image in clearer. nice

Hello Ecmel,
You show us a nice contrast picture with the sunset about the Nile.
It seems almost an old painting.
Pleasant to look at.
Very well composition, good presentation.
Nice done, TFS.

Hi Ecmel,
you have not posted photos for a while.
The site is almost dying. Not many people left.
I am glad to see your new photo again.
This is a spectacular sunset capture.
I had the pleasure to be on the Nile river cruise so I have witnessed several sunsets near the river but my camera was quite poor yet at that time and in general my photos from Egypt are not the best.
You have wonderfully recorded the great colors of the sky, a lovely gradient from bright tones at the top to the darker near the horizon and everything nicely reflected in the water. The silhouette of people on the boat adds a nice touch.
Very well done,
M

Hello Ecmel,
Beautiful composition in different horizontal layers.
Very pretty alternation of pink and dark surfaces.
Interesting inclusion of the boat with the two persons.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Ecmel,
Your sunset is soft and warm, not fiery as sometimes happens.
I like how the silhouetted features become pronounced against the red glow and, best of all is the boat with the two figures; they animate the scene and add to the strength of the composition.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Ecmel,
A beautiful sunset photo with wonderful colours in the sky, which make a great contrast with the dark silhouettes. Good inclusion of the small boat in the foreground as well.
