[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This shot was my first sunset shot and let me tell you it was not easy. My mother was driving the car on the highway at 100 km/h and I took it outside the window. We were heading home to Chatham from having dinner in London. Comments appreciated.

Not bad at all for a "high speed" shot! I love sunsets with lots of colour and you did a good one here! Next time, ask Mom to stop and give you a few minutes and you will REALLY see a sunset! Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing it with us.

Extremely beautiful. Sunsets are my weakness and this one is adding drama to the sky.
Good shot.

This is a nice capture of the smooth cottoney sky.

Nice exposure and colour. Beautiful.

Hi Jessica, I know how it feel... I always do this on my way to work, both hand on the wheel and on the camera.

Very nice shot you got there, I like the cloud, the formation of it and the colours just excellent. Very steady shot too...consider the speed that you are in. Very well done and excellent job.

Thanks for sharing, keep posting. :)

wow what a lovely shot!!beautiful color!!

That's a really good effort through the window of a moving car, Jessica :) Wonderful colours and swirling clouds and the silhouettes frame it all nicely at the bottom.

look forward to seeing more of your shots! :)

Hey, this is an awesome sunset shot. I really like the colors. I would suggest cropping it (bottom). Best wishes!

Hello Jessica,

I am happy that has had this idea
because I also made that in a picture
that I posted " Sunset in Travel ", it was
in a highway to 80km and it could not stop, oh
I did the same as you went beating pictures
of the window of the car, the effect is beautiful
Congratulations for the picture, are my favorite ones.

A beautiful sunset. A beautiful photo...

I love the colors and how the orange reflects off the clouds.
I can imagine how hard it is as I have done some of that.
I love all you sunset pics. :P

Bien lograda tu imagen, Jessica. Felicidades.
