Hello Fran,
Great mood here!
I love the powerline, normally an eyesore but here an important element in the composition...
Superb!

It is the first time I see power masts used with such dramatic effect in what is primarily a nature shot. At first they seem disturbing, but if they weren't there, the photo might be boring and with less depth. A nice compo with that tall sky.

Sweet as sugar you are! I like the perspective convergence of the electrical towers with the fisher people in the foreground. Nice end to a peaceful day!

Merci for the View
Have a great weekend!

fran,
a grand view which is also calm in nature and a sense of solitude comes over. good composition with the elements. as pablo said the powerlines are eyesore normally but here you have composed them well.

I see myself just sitting there, maybe fishing, enjoing the other fisherman, enjoing the scenery, taking a photo of this suberb sunset with Fran, discussing who will teach the next macro photography course, and then I see a big fight to see who gets the last cigaret. Lol. Nice relaxing pic. TFS ^-^

Wow Fran, fresh sun nicely caught! And it looks like the fishermen were also enjoying the sunset too. And the power lines even seem to suit the image too. Beautiful colours, well done.
I'm gonna have to teach you how to even up the horizons though!
Cheers my friend,
Janice

Hi Fran, it was worth the wait to get this nice sunset shot. Beautiful soft pastel sky colours, interesting scenery with the fishermen and the bridge, well done.

Kindest regards

Original! We saw so much sunset by here. It's easy to impress us by the beauty and majestic of it... But to find different way to present it...
To make it fall down on a line... An electric sun!? I would not have to pay the bill!! :)

Great Sunset Fran! Beautiful colors and the towers carry your eye into the distance. I wish I could take a sunset photo here, it's been raining and cloudy for the past 2 weeks straight with no sign of clearing anytime soon. Springtime in Ottawa sucks!
Cheers

Exceptional sunset with fishermen and collegues photographers; these electricity lines make the picture; the lining is great towards the descending point. Lovely silhouettes and I like the dividing in sky and land.
Very attractive Fran

Hello Fran,

Lovely soft colours displaying a magic sunset. Well composed with the powerline adding some perspective. Good silhouettes and PP work. I was wondering perhaps if you maybe had some lens curve? Janice pointed out the horizon but it just may be corrected using the tool in X for Lens Distortion. TFS and hugsss,
David
PS Many thanks for your comment on Fungus and Lichen

An electric sunset over water! Surely electricity and water don't mix! I hope those fishermen didn't get a shock. ;o)

Nice composition with beautiful colors and silhouettes, and the line of the pylons makes this one unique.

Lois

Hi Fran,
nice sunset shot, though I'd love to see it with half of the sky cropped out. In that way you'd emphasize fantastic series of pylons coming from setting sun. tfs
