Description I went out for a smoke and ran back in to get my camera. The color in this one impressed me.

Title is from Thrice's album Vheissu.

"Red Sky"

I know what lies beneath, I've seen the flash of teeth.
Conspiring with the reef to sink our ship.
The wind's a cheating wife, her tongue a thirsty knife.
And she could take your life with one good kiss.

Can you see the sky turn red?
As morning's light breaks over me,
Know tonight we'll make our bed
at the bottom of the sea.

I know the ocean speaks, I've heard her call to me.
And smiling in my dreams she whispers this
(The stars retreat behind their veil.
The clouds are clinging to your sail.
The storm is coming can you see?)

Can you see the sky turn red?
As morning's light breaks over me,
Know tonight we'll make our bed
at the bottom of the sea.

Look and see the sky turn red.
Like blood it covers over me.
And soon the sea shall give up her dead.
We'll raise an empire from the bottom of the sea

Beautiful, beautiful colours and composition. I love the angle, just a straight-up shot, no fancy angle, it makes it better and simpler, and doesn't take away from the absolutel gorgeous colours. I love how they blend into one another, very dreamy and poetic...

I also love the landscape. I don't know how long you spend composing this, but it seems like a long time because you got the landscape just pefect. There's trees against the edge to lead you into the middle, then you see that most perfect tree right off-center, blazing with light and shadow...it's breathtaking.

Definitely a favourite of the works I've seen from you! ^^

I am humbled by your generous praise. Thank you for taking the time to write such a wonderful comment. I have several more shots of the same sunset but the colors are not as vivid as this one I may put some of them in my scraps.
