The dry, cracked earth south of Phoenix looks on as a weak thunderstorm drops much needed rain on the thirsty desert just as the sun begins to set, casting a gorgeous glow across the sky.

Laholm Sweden

Beautiful sunset over Reine. Great glow on the mountains adds a real warmth to the reflections in the water. Giving this a very peaceful mood.

I went near by home yesterday scouting for flowers…scarce they were, but on the other hand the sunset wasn’t too bad.

I usually get away with two or three image blends to complete most scenes. This shot took one for the foreground, one for the mid-ground, and three for the background…of the three, one for the horizon line (mountains & saguaro), one for the sky, and one for the glaring sun breaking through the clouds.

Playa de los Catedrales (Galicia, Spain)

A magical sunset over Azkorri, one of my favourite spots which I already love even before I started shooting. Just one shot processed in LR and PS.
