[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
At most once a month we have a sunset (should be sunrise...) like this, so you have to enjoy it every single time. Today I was working and needed to get something from the roof; there I saw the sun and ran downstairs to get my camera and take some shots.
Hope you can enjoy this more often then we do.
Have a happy Monday.
David

Hoi David,
Dit is het o zo herkenbare oranje-rood van de Chinese zonsondergang... zo hebben wij ze ook gezien.
Aan dit soort beelden kun je goed zien dat er (helaas) veel vervuiling in de lucht zit. Het is een prachtig gezicht, maar het geeft ook te denken...

Mooie silhouetten met een plaatje van een zonsondergang hoor.

Groetjes,
Anneke

Hello David.
Excellent sunset picture with the silhouets of the buildings at forground.
Bravo and thanks of showing here.
Cheers, Jan

Hi Richard, beutiful red sunset, nice focus, good saturation

Hi David..nice shot...sharp, great colors and tones..nice work.

Roger

Geweldig silouette David. De oranje kleur lijkt bijna irreal. Waarom zijn dit soort zonsondergaan zo zeldzaam daar?

Groetjes,
Jim

Loevely warm colours in the sky and interesting silhouettes of the building - I'm glad you managed to capture this rarity.
Thanks for sharing
Mark

Hi David fantastic and perfect sunset shot MF.
TFS and cheers,

Bayram

eh sunrise or sunset? different title and different note, David.. so which one? hehe kidding.. but from your exif data it was sunrise.. so late? anyway beautiful colour.. well seen and taken..

regards, terry

'k Geloof nooit dat jij al zo vroeg op bent !
Sunrise vs sunset
Wie bewaard er nu iets op z'n dak wat ie nodig heeft ?
LOL

Goeie sfeerfoto !
Toch heb ik een " but " :
Zou minder oranje lucht laten zien en zeker die donkerder
plek rechtsboven zou ik trachten te vermijden.

Wat misschien niet volgens " de regels " is,
is die ghost van de zon
maar, die vind ik nu juist een extraatjes.
'k Weet het ... de wereld loopt vol van die bietekwieten
en je het kan maar treffen om ze te kennen ...
:-)

See you later alligator

In winter I can sometimes enjoy a sunrise, David. Once spring is in the air the sun rises a lot earlier than I do ;o).
Nice view of the sun, these towers form a natural frame for it. Unlike Jan, I'm not too fond of the ghost; cloning it out shouldn't be too difficult.
Btw, what are these towers?
TFS

Hello David! Wonderful sunset, amazing towers, ideal light and shot, perfect contrast. Fantastic effect. Good luck!

Hello David.

Excellent picture, nice composition and colors.
Beatiful Sihouete.

Regards.
Jose Luis.
