Thank you Ann. The best part is that the colours are just as they were! It was the best sunset I’ve ever seen and I must say I was in awe of it.
David Friederich, about 1 month ago

Spectacular picture, Em. I love it!
emmmee in reply to Prasad’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thank you again Prasad. No enhancement on this shot. The sunset was stunning.
David Friederich, about 1 month ago

Oh, and I agree with tate6. The pelican really adds to the picture. It’s wake is an important element too. Very nicely composed.
emmmee in reply to Tate6’s comment, about 1 month ago

This was such a wonderful experience – stunning colour and cloud formation and the pelicans on the sandbar were a bonus. I had no idea the bar was there and that they would congregate there at sunset – right place at the right time! em

emmmee in reply to David Friederich’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thanks David. I must say, I did move around on the pier so I could get him in the picture. I love those birds.

Thank you l. I’m so thrilled with the clarity and the true colours with my new camera. Idyllic spot and time of day.
emmmee in reply to Col Finnie’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thanks Col. I just waited for him to swim into view and while I did, the colours deepened, so he proved to be a double bonus.
emmmee in reply to georgieboy98’s comment, about 1 month ago

WOW Peter! Thank you! I must say I’m thrilled with this one. Everything worked once this little fellow swam into view.
emmmee in reply to peggywright’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thank you Peggy – Can’t believe I didn’t have to tweak it. That’s how it was. Took my breath away. em
emmmee in reply to jase8812’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thanks Jase. And thanks for ‘watching’. The colours are as they were, and blow me away every time I look at it. It was quite thrilling to see. Nature is just GRAND!! em

Thanks Bente -haven’t retouched anything, including the colour. It amazes me that that is exactly how it was. I’m just in awe of the beauty of Nature.

emmmee in reply to John Brotheridge’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thanks John. The converence became stronger, but the colour diminished towards the end – of course. Glad you like it.

Thanks Walter. I love them too. Most unexpected by me, but obviously a favourite place for them every evening. em
emmmee in reply to Cathleen Tarawhiti’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thank YOU! I feel very honoured! I treasure the recognition. It was a glorious sunset, from start to finish, through all its shades and cloud formations, but this topped the lot, I thought. Thanks again, em
