[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken while we were on the Gulf coast visiting a casino. Steve likes to play the slots while I like to take photos!
Incredibly this was the view from the rear of the parking garage, it faced the docks where some moored their boats while gambling. The Gulf of Mexico is just beyond the boats where the sun is sinking to the horizon. I was lucky to capture the setting sun. I hope you enjoy this photo, thanks for visiting.

This is the one you requested David!

Hi Fran, great sunset indeed and I would do the same as you: take photos while my man would be playing at the casino if it was his past-time.

Nice silhouette and orange colour.

Take care, Yan :)

ps: Many thx for your crit in "Quebec City's Bridges" :)

Reflections of the sun. Well done! :)

Nice shot and colors, well done, thanks for sharing!

Hi Fran
I don't know if Steve had any luck at the Casino. Two things are for sure, you were the lucky one to get this shot and we are the lucky ones to get to see this gorgeous sunset with the silhouettes of the boats. Looks like you are getting use to the camera.

Hi Fran,

What a great sunset!! I really like the POV with the sun "hiding" behind the boats! Wonderful colour tones and mood!

Very well done
Constantinos

you take a mean sunset Fran, another GOLDEN image, thanx, M, (*_*)

Hello Fran,

Beautiful visual, I loved to see this picture.
They are my favorite ones, so much for his coloration, shine and silhouettes.
Beautiful shot, big visual!
Congratulations

Sérgio

Hi Fran. Now I looked at this time yesterday and the rose was the last image you had loaded. Now I see two new ones. Did I request this one...forgive me it is something to do with being old or so Sandy keeps telling me. A lovely shot, well composed and just enough of the sun to cast enough light. Good colour and well framed. TFS,
David

Many thanks for your comment on ‘Street Busking’

Very stunning colours Fran, and the bightness of teh sun is very bright...
Well done,
Janice

We get some lovely sunsets/rises out here in the middle of things but you cant beat water to catch the sun comming and going. Wouldnt mind a bit of the water right about now, a swim would go down rather well.(someone else can have the casino)
Diane

Vivid color and stong mood! The contrast of that sun explosion with the complex structure of all the boats is a pleasure for the eye!

hi! fran nice timing... great shot.. nice work.. well done... thanks for sharing

Franny,
