Mike from Lichfield, United Kingdom

Nice sunset shot. I like the silhouetted tree. It looks warmer than here.... Nothing but snow over night.

@Mike: Yes it does not snow here except on really freak occasions :) And much warmer than nearly anywhere ;)

Beautiful purple there. What a good sentimental piece of art work!

k@ from Paris, France

Love those colors, sweet pinky sky with something of an inner fire*

wouaaaaaaaaa beautifull sky

@Veronelle: I know it makes me feel very peaceful!

Knut Magne from Hamar, Norway

Great contrast on the tree against the sky, but at the same time I get the feeling that there is something going on. The hard shadows and the red clouds give me alerts about something scary (special the tree). I hope you understand what I mean. Technical great picture!

@Knut Magne: Thank you Knut! Yes it does slightly feel foreboding doesn't it? I don't know if I intentionally did that or not.

MadScientist from Düsseldorf, Germany

Awesome sky! I didn't know that your trees cast their leaves too - I mean, it's the Caribbean, no?

5 Jan 2009 2:33pm

@MadScientist: It's close to the Caribbean, but still north enough that the leaves will go. But we also have a lot of pine trees that do not cast their leaves.

Pradeep from Chennai, India

Beautiful shot, love the silhouettes and the light. Lovely :)

@Pradeep: Thank you Pradeep!

Lorraine from Gatineau, Canada

took my breath away K.I. did you tweak the sky a little or what is that exact hue...either way it's surreal and beautiful ;

5 Jan 2009 4:35pm

@Lorraine: I'm so glad you like it. Yes I did enhance the sky using saturation ... I can't ever leave my pictures alone I'm afraid ;)

Jean-François from LES ISSAMBRES, France
