Just GORGEOUS! There isn't anything I can say about this image other than that. It's a lovely sunset silhouette and I think the composition works very well. :~) #1261775Jeff E Jensen April 23, 2010
I have to agree with Aimee on this one Laurence. This is fantastic. I'm sure we will see it again. #8564048Jeanine M. Bailey April 23, 2010
WOW!!! This is just AMAZING!!! The color and comp are just fantastic!!! Wonderful work on this Laurence! :) #8564347Dale Hardin April 23, 2010
Laurence, this is indeed excellent. The colors are bright and a perfect contrast to the silhouette.My only suggestion is your signature. It's very distracting in the sky and would fit better in the lower right corner with a reduced size. #8564650

Outstanding. Enter it everywhere just as it is. Those colors are fabulous. #8565132Michael Kelly April 23, 2010
Wonderful Laurence! I love it. Very nice to capture the birds crisply in this tough lighting situation - good call on the shutter speed.#8565363

Ok I will just change the signature into the black area. Thanks :) #8566250Peter W. Marks April 24, 2010
Very nice indeed Laurance, and who isn't impressed by the colors of sunsets like these.Teresa H. Hunt April 25, 2010
Wonderful shot Laurence!! I have no critiques. :) #8569380Ellen H. Robertson April 28, 2010
Very dramatic and outstandingly beautiful!!!! #8575886Christie R. Bielss April 30, 2010
Absolutely beautiful, Laurence! #8580237Debbie E. Payne April 30, 2010
Lovely, lovely, lovely! I don't mind the wires and poles. They are not a "major" part of this image. I love silhouettes and this is a wonderfully "seized" shot. Getting something with flying birds in it is not easy. #8580859Susan M. Reynolds May 05, 2010
I'll agree that it is a WoW photo, strong silhoutte with beautiful colors. The only thing I could say has been said about the signature. Well done :) #8591863Irene Colling May 18, 2010
Sunset silhouettes are always dramatic looking and you captured this scene perfectly. #8620179Stefania Barbier August 13, 2010
