I love # 4 postcard perfect.



What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

Hi Shari, we will take a small scoop of 1, lots of 4, and a sprinkle of 5.

Shari,

They are all beautiful!

The topic of interest and intent is the sunset. So, with that in mind I favor #3. That photo and #5 were taken within seconds of one another, and a little later than the others, giving the sunsets more intensity. They both have the same cloud and water formations. I like the way the sunset reflects on the water a little better in #3.

If the focus weren't on the sunset, I would chose #4. The frozen water looks delicious! Next would be #1 for composition.

But then, I am a complex person....:) Every utterance requires a qualification. I take my assignments seriously.:smug::rolleyes:

ahhh, so glad you take your assignment seriously tony...my intent was to snap a photo of a gorgeous sunset....but it was so spectacular, I ventured further into the front yard to see if it were reflecting into the blowhole pool...but then the kids playing at the edge made a new "subject" for a picture...I really like people in photos too...so now my original intention of snapping a sunset pic got more complex...now I had to take into consideration the humans, reflections, wave patterns...loved how the waves came over the rocks...yadda yadda...

result was lots of neat photos but too much time spent trying to decide which one(s) to post.

I thank you all once again for your input.
I'm gonna try cropping differently as igor suggested....it will change to a kelp paddy at sunset photo...here ya go skipjack

A sunset is as much, or more, a state of mind as it is watching the sun go out of sight.........unless, of course, you're a Horizonologist. :P

Shari, the blue in the upper right corner really enhances your last image IMO.

OK, OK...enough...


...rubbing it in, already!

Yeah, sure they're great photos...another crappy day in paradise, yada, yada, yada....

However, we have some of those colorful days up here in 'Norte', in the San Joaquin valley...

When the smoggy air gets blown over our way from the coast, and you set up the camera near the muni's septic flotation pond where the 'foam' comes blowing up the levee - we can get a few of those rose-orange, puffy cloud shots near the water...:o

No big deal...;D
