Hmm, good call, Alan. I think I like this one beter. The unusual violet colour still persists without looking too over-saturated -- and the white spot is smaller with more of the "ray" effect -- more in scale not taking up so much visual real-estate. Outstanding shot! Is this a second image with different exposure? (I have my camera set to "auto film-waster mode" so always take 3 shots with automatic bracketing. Very useful feature!)

Thanks Nawitka! I think I prefer this one too. This is the same image, just with the main RGB levels adjusted in Photoshop, the exposure time was 1/40. LOL, I wish I'd used auto-bracketing when I took these shots, the sun was setting faster than I could set the camera :)

Many thanks, Alan

Greetings Alan, A masterpiece. The colors are soft/pastel and complimented by the soft reflection in the water. And the two halves of the picture are divided by a nice sharp line. Very nice.

Cheers, Rich
