No match
Taken at Ambury Park, Auckland. This is a working farm open to the public, and one of the animals decided to be part of this shot.

I love the sheep in the picture...too bad the rocks are not them there...I thought at first maybe they are sheep too. Good job. Submit more pictures with animals...hopefully IFL would increase amount of wallpapers posted with farm animals...it's DEFINITELY missing ! A sunset or a sunrise with animals is a great idea.

Chris, if you're using cheap graduated neutral density filters from Cokin, Tiffen or Lee, you're going to get color casts. The best filters by far, and the only ones not to impart color shifts with their NDs is Singh-Ray. Expensive, but worth every penny if you're serious about your work.

Looks like we have a lot of whiners here that will not or not able to contribute but still complaining... It's not like this is a paid website. Give me a break. One of the main reasons I have not submitted anything yet due to all the ungratefulness that is abound on this site. I haven't had a chance to go through my portfolio and pick something to upload here and do all the resizing. There is a lot of work involved in submitting a high quality image here. Chris... keep posting all these wonderful sunsets buddy. I love every single one of them. Cheers.

Some great advice to go with a great picture. Another excellent shot Chris. I would recommend that anyone here who is a fan of Chris' contributions to check out his Flickr page. Much more variety there.

I love this... The sheep looks like it is contemplating the sunset. Your flickr site is very impressive; it was great to see some portrait shots for a different perspective. Some really fantastic work there, Chris. I love birds and flowers (I design gardens) and the shot of the Chaffinch is particularly wonderful. I feed the ones in my garden and this shot shows how gorgeous they are in such fine detail. You obviously don't just do sunsets, as anyone who goes to your flickr site won't be able to deny.

Clearly no shortage of talent this Chris Gin has to offer and the users comments are mostly very constructive as well. I think I would like to see all of Chris's work displayed on this site he has own style that's got something special to offer. I would like this picture blown up big and put on my wall.

For this shot, the sky was a light purple tone due to the thin haze of cloud hanging around and the grad filter made it darker, so that's how it came out of the camera. I did play with the curves during PP to bring out the orange a bit more though.

so is this heavily processed, or is the sky really that color?

Annesville, I submitted "Shipwrecked" a while ago... up to the admins now.

noyo = not! Damn tiny laptop keyboard...

Annesville
Please submit your photo "Shipwrecked" - it's an excellent photo from composition to post processing. BTW, have you ever thought of selling some of your photos? You've got a pretty good selection of subject matter on your flickr page. Look here for instance to get started http://www.fouroaksonline.co.za/stock.php (p.s. it's not my site!)

Not to worry, this one was actually submitted months ago. After my 'Green Delight' one I decided noyo to submit anymore sunsets. Hopefully I can get some different shots, but based on history they won't be accepted... oh well...

P.S. Chris, you're a great photographer, and I love the sheep, but I'd be lying if I didn't agree with others that familiarity breeds contempt. We're just having a sunset OD, that's all!

I wonder why IFL doesn't set up a special membership section where we can see all the new submissions coming in and rate them? Then the ones that get a certain amount of votes are greenlit onto the main site (sort of like Fark articles)? I wouldn't mind ponying up a monthly or annual fee to get total access. Or just give us some non-monetary incentive to join, like anyone who submits a photo or two can be a member? This would effectively demolish the sunset complaints and probably provide a greater variety due to collective moderation. Mm?

I wish. Some of my grad filters give a magenta color cast which I sometimes correct via white balance, but other times leave in.

Chris, are the skies in Auckland always that amazing purple?

My gear : Body - Canon 40D, Lenses - Sigma 10-20, Tamron 17-50, Sigma 70-300. I use a cheapo unbranded tripod, and don't have an external flash. I also use graduated ND filters a lot.

Nice profile on flickr. What kinda gear do you use? As in, camera, lenses, tripod, flash, all that good stuff.
