    Oh no, not another sunset.... 'fraid so...

    Just a sunset taken from out front of the house after a very hot day. Not a planned shot. Just caught my eye as I was walking inside from doing something or other and so I dashed out the front after grabbing my camera. It was more of a spur of the moment serendipitous snap in the short time it lasted. Within 5 to 10 minutes it had all turned a very dull nondescript grey.
    Thanks for viewing

    This one was definitely worth capturing. IMO the rays make it special. And the silhouette FG works against the near monochrome sky. Well done.

    I'm with Dan on that.

    That angled slope of land and the tree lift it from 'just another b..... sunset'.

    I agree. This is an unusual image, not just another sunset, and a very nice one.

    Yes another sunset, some are better than other and this one, is a standout. Brilliantly executed and I like it a lot.

    Unusual sunset with the slopping ground. Very nice.

    You severely underestimate your image by referring to it as "Just another sunset". This is a terrific image.

    Thank you all for your very kind comments. I guess this was just another case of sometimes you get lucky when framing a shot.
