Hi Chris, I love it when these stunning coloured skies appear to brighten us up! We don't see enough of them. Beautiful colours, and super silhouettes.
IMO I would have cloned out the lights, as they don't really seem to fit in the beauty of nature here.
But still well done, thank you.

Hi Chris,
You're sooo right, the colours are awesome... enhanced by the silhouetted trees! Street lights doesn't bother me as they are part of reality and no disturbance in the picture

What a color, Chris ! Amazing what we can capture in our backyards, isn't it. The street lights don't bother me one bit.

Incredible ..with 3% saturation. Your backyard shots are just as fantastic too. The orange hues of the skies are very special..Seems like a very fiery dramatic day. TFS

Hello
Chris its great! The dramatic sunset behind the silhouette trees is awsome. The streets light are fine, the main thing you really focus on the sunset, the sunset really chaught my eyes.
So yes you did a brilliant job.

Say, when did you return from the space station on Mars with this photo?

As you say, very dramatic! Amazing how the blue sky is not shining through as blue, but as dark shades of grey. The colour creates huge impact to the image and the black silhouette creates the drama.

I don't think the street lights is so much of a problem - it would have created mare problems should you have taken them out with PP.

Hi Chris,
Great sunset. The colours are amazing. One thing that occured to me is that the sky must be dusty, because it i sthe dust particles that makes the sunsets red. Whatever it is, simply beautiful.

Chris,

I like the lights in the photos, this is a great sky shot with awesome colors. The lights give a good reference point. Nice scenery where you live.

Hi Chris,

Well done on this composition. Beautiful view.
Maybe cloaning the lights would help the overall view.

Yeah, it's impressive photo. Colours are wonderful. If it was me, I'd crop out part of the sky - but this is my preferemce. White lamps light makes good contrast for the red orange sky. tfs

Very dramatic. Unbelievable colours. I don't find the lights disturbing. Adds reality. The sky is for sure unreal.

Hi Chris
Cecil DeMille would have given you bags of goodies for this kind of dramatic sky (that also achieved at 3% sturation!) Very well seen and shot friend. It is truly classic

Wow! Marvellous sunset with great colours. If it were mine, I'd clone out the street lights. You have a lovely backyard.

chris,
so nicely dramatized compo,beautiful light.if you had eradicated that street lights ,then I would think this pic was taken in a sahara or a tropic island etc.,but with that lights I see that it is taken in a city and better to give the original scene in my opinion.
