Crowd-pleaser.
Ok, A crowd pleaser… but hey, it was there.
Oscar Wilde said,
Nobody of any real culture, for instance, ever talks these days about the beauty of sunsets. Sunsets are quite old fashioned. They belong to the time when Turner was the last note in art. To admire them is a distinct sign of provincialism of temperament. Upon the other hand, they go on.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- anyone who can take landscapes is amazing in my book. This is stellar and I don’t know how you landscapers do it. I can never do justice to a beautiful horizon.
High FIves Sir!!
Mike Emmett replied
Cheers… Although, now that you point out the horizon, I see its not straight… must correct that…
H M Bascom
Excellent photo.
Mike Emmett replied
Thanks Helen. It’s my little experiment – how many views will a pretty sunset get over, say, a social commentary piece?
H M Bascom
I would venture to guess the sunset will receive a great many more views.
Mike Emmett replied
sigh… I know. I’ll see when I put up a social commentary piece in a while…
Steve Chapple
Maybe, maybe not, but I know this is a perfect example of how a sunset should be!
Mike Emmett
Cheers Stephen!
