Hello Bob 'up north'. Well this was taken tonight(22july) around 9pm just about 70 miles south. I was amazed when I downloaded it. Looks like Mars. Thanks for your visit and praise Bob.

AXOTA, on July 27, 2008, said:

On my way back to port from a pleasant day at sea, I observed the sun sinking slowly through each cloud formation, low on the horizon. Each layer of cloud, refracting golden light, blending the golds reds and yellows. In what seemed like a few seconds, all around me, the sky, sea and land glowed like the hearth of a fiery furnace, and so was transformed the Earth

IT'S TOO BEAUTIFUL TO BE HELL ON EARTH! My caps lock was on by mistake, but I thought, stuff it, I'll leave it on, that's a snorter of a sunset!

Every photo I look up is like opening a present and that was a shocker. Fantastic!

Kind regards, Sue

AXOTA, on August 11, 2008, said:

Greetings Sue. It is nice to meet you.

Now that you have found your way to this salty scene, it is my pleasure to give you a warm Yorkshire welcome.

Sunsets seem to bring out the most expressive feelings in people. Perhaps it is the end of a moment in time lost forever, yet captured here for eternity.

Yet sunsets are the most common of all spectacles. Every gallery I visit, almost without exception will have an equally stunning and enjoyable image.

I have to conclude that some of the most spectacular and visually stimulating sights are those of the sea and sky above us.

You have a nice way of expressing your thoughts and feelings. It makes it all the more a pleasure for me to know that you enjoyed your visit. Thankyou.

Susan @llen, on August 14, 2008, said:

Jim, I only just got your warm Yorkshire welcome! Thank you so much! I was only just saying the other day that I've noticed everyone clamering to take a shot of something beautiful, as though time is running out for the human race. Our ancestors could only enjoy the moment for what it was, couldn't they? Personally,I love photographs, even for the simple reason that they remind me of 90% of my life which I would otherwise have forgotten!

Lovely to hear from you, catch you soon, Sue

Compliments JIM very good. greetings from Linz Marita

AXOTA, on August 16, 2008, said:

Your point regarding your past. I agree very much with your sentiments Sue. My mum who is almost 90 likes nothing better than to rummage through the family album where we spend hours reminiscing about times and people long since past. I dont think mums' generation fully realised the importance of keeping these safe. So many of them are damaged and faded. Not even writing who, when, and where on the back of each photo. I hope to rectify this ommission just as long as she is alive. Her memory is quite good, thankfully. --Jim

AXOTA, on December 5, 2008, said:

Hello Nick, and Greetings jopoloco, I must confess that I am hooked on sunsets/sunrises and all manner of atmospheric phenomena.

Looking in everyones faves, there are few galleries without a decent sunset or two. I could fill my pages with so many similar shots, it's knowing when to stop.

I am most grateful for your friendly feedback Nick and especially the yellow star treatment jopoloco, it is indeed a priviledge to have ones work recognised with this award.

Thanks to you both for calling in---Jim
