This sunset was taken in 2003 on the Oregon coast, at a place called....Sunset Bay.

It is so pretty that it does not look real . . . how do you do that? Wonderful shot and work on this composition for sure.

You nailed it with that one! Perfectly level horizon, great coloration; the composition is great with that foreground emphasis, reflecting that beautiful sky to great effect.

Thanks for the comments. I should mention, there was no post-processing involved. My old Sony Mavica had a spot meter (the button for which eventually became stuck...damn). I learned that using it to meter off the brightest area, I got nicely exposed and saturated shots of sunsets/sunrises. I sure miss that feature, but not enough to send it in for repair. Wish my DREB had a spot meter.

That picture brings back great memories of that area. You captured that sunset perfectly.
