Sunset on Derwent Water, The Lake District
Sometimes, just sometimes reality can exceed all your expectations. The day had been a complete washout with a horrendous storm that seemed to go on forever. Then, just before sunset the storm broke to create one of the most colourful and amazing sunsets I have ever seen. Turned out I was in a great locations as well. Shot on the banks of Derwent Water near Keswick in the English Lake District.

I love how the color of the sky blends so well with the boats.
Perfect composition with the detail in the bottom boat and the line creating a leading line to the sky and sunset.
Very well done Robin!
