Ah, if only I'd critiqued this first! You know your stuff. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/m…" width="15" height="15" alt=":meow:" title="Meow :3"/>

As someone mentioned, it's as if the sky is on fire! You caught the sunset at just the right time, going from both possible extremes, from one end of the spectrum to the other, to create a piece that is truly representative of every single possible aspect of a sunset, every color and nearly every cloud shape that can make it beautiful.

At the same time, you have the juxtaposition of the things on the ground, held in stark silhouette to the light of the sky, creating a somber atmosphere that makes you feel at peace, if not a little ambivalent about whether or not you should consider it a sad photograph or a breath-taking one. By this, I mean that... well, you know how some things are so beautiful that they make you cry? This is one of htose things!

In taking this photograph, you've really done the location and the art of photography a great service. I can't wait to see what you do next! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/m…" width="15" height="15" alt=":meow:" title="Meow :3"/>
