beautiful shot. I love the way the houses are highlighted on the edges with a orange glow

I loved this one so much. It just did something to me with the setting sun creating the orange lines on the eaves of the house to the right. With the house there, it was so much more than just a seascape. It gave it an emotion that just a beautiful scene would not. I think it should have been top 5 for sure.

Delightful Robert. The contrail makes the shot, providing a wonderful balance of light in the upper left to the houses in the lower right.

Wonderful shot, great light and color. Curious why you left the vapor trail in though?

this looks like a picture they would use for a book cover for Nicolas Sparks

Nice cloud formations you've found, and the sunset itself isn't too bad either :) I enjoy how the jet contrail goes literally "off into the sunset," as well.

Cool sky. Too bad about the plane trail. The foreground is a little too dark.

I enjoy the movement of colour here. From the bright blown-out sun to the near darkness at the edge contrasted against the viewer side shadows. The clouds and jet-stream add a nice element of drama to the image.

I adore the light in this one. The very last rays of a sunset, beautifully outlining the features of the landscape.
