Great shot Moppie.

This is quite amusing. Seems everyone who makes a pic, one of the other 5 photographers, was taking a pic of a pic being taken. :D

I live for sunsets with that kind of color, but I am rarely in the right place at the right time... you've got a beautiful shot and composition!

Excellent shot. I love the foreground stuff leading you in.

Both shots are gorgeous. I notice Kenny didn't even comment on the slightly tilted horizon.

Im flattered :o

There were 6 of us all shooting the same sunset, if you love this then Im sure you'll love some of the other guys shots.

I only picked this one out because the clouds are so perfectly reflected wet sand, and as you can see it was shot with the camera as close to the wet sand I was prepared to let it get :)

Tilted? Doesn't look tilted to me, of course maybe I'm blinded by the light. :)
Probably just the curvature of the Earth. :)

Must be your monitor, I just checked with the ruler tool in PS and that Horizan is straight! (I swear!) :D
The waves however are coming in at a slight angle ;)

Mine just seem to look 'dirty' compared to yours. What ISO were you guys shooting at?

I stayed on 50 all day, infact I rarly ever shoot at anything else, one of the biggest down sides to the A series is Noise at anything above 100.
