Dear TL members,

Another Sunset shot from my appartment's balcony :)

Just to give you an idea of the scale of the picture, I included the building which can be seen in the lower-right corner of the picture, is a multistory building having more than 20 stories.

I simply love colors.

Hope you like this shot.

kind regards,
Paras

--------------------------------

Halle is the largest city in the German State of Saxony-Anhalt. It is also called Halle an der Saale (literally Halle on the Saale river, and in some historic references simply Saale after the river) in order to distinguish it from Halle in North Rhine-Westphalia. The current official name of the city is Halle (Saale).

It is situated in the southern part of the state, along the river Saale which drains the surrounding plains and the greater part of the neighboring Free State of Thuringia located just to its south, and the Thuringian basin, northwards from the Thuringian Forest. Leipzig, one of the other major cities of eastern Germany, is only 40 km away.

Halle's early history is connected with harvesting of salt. In fact the name Halle may be derived from a Pre-Germanic word for salt. The name of the river Saale also contains the Germanic root for salt and salt-harvesting has taken place in Halle at least since the time of the Bronze Age.

The town was first mentioned in 806. It became a part of the Archbishopric of Magdeburg in the 10th century and remained so until 1680, when Brandenburg-Prussia annexed it together with Magdeburg as the Duchy of Magdeburg. In 1815 it became part of the Prussian Province of Saxony.

After World War II Halle served as the capital of the short-lived administrative region of Saxony-Anhalt, this was until 1952 when the East German government abolished its "Länder" (States). As a part of East Germany (until 1990), it functioned as the capital of the administrative district ("Bezirk") of Halle. When Saxony-Anhalt was re-established as a Bundesland, Magdeburg became the capital. (Source: WiKiedia)

Good Morning Paras,

A lovely capture showing how the blue of the sky slowly changes to the fire of the volcano, as the sun sets. I like the sweeping nature of the clouds.

A closer shot, just showing the silhouetted buildings against the fiery regions would also have made a good shot.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Paras,

Nature's canvas is the best in my opinion. Stunning colors and silhouettes in this sunset capture. I like that you've included the upper blue sky as well, it adds nice contrast to the oranges and reds. TFS

dear Paras,
orange and blue colors are deep, those shows one special atmosphere at sunset time.
that is one wide space in our mind which we can only see at the peaceful end of the day...
anyway shining sky and silhouette of buildings make a beautiful stage on the fine horizon.
thank you for your excellent shot,
Akihisa

Hello Paras,
