No match
This spot is on a dirt road that goes up one of the many mountains around my house. This area looks down on the surrounding valley and is a relatively popular local place to view the sunset. On cloudy days, the sky turns deep colors during and just after sunset for only a few minutes. I used this opportunity to try out my new SIGMA 10-20 HSM but forgot to use smaller apertures to keep sharp corners, but it didn't bother me enough to keep from using the picture.

Sorry Lehman, the city itself isn't that great, I live there. The sky is awesome from time to time. It's the smog that gives it the color.

Very nice shot. It has an airiness that I like so much in good photography. As for the angle of the horizon, it does impart an "in flight" feel as cited by Brizkit. However, unlike him, I simply propped up one side of my monitor to level the horizon!!!

Hey reeed, I probably should have left the editing up to the artist, but I just had a little spare time and figured I'd rotate it for dazzleme (and others). I didn't alter a thing otherwise. In fact, I actually prefer the original -- the angle adds a nice "in flight" feeling. This is a really cool capture.

The colors are stunning. Mother-nature sure knows how to leave us speech less. This is a great example of it.

This is taken from box springs mountain! I should've taken a version with a level horizon, but I was without a tripod and was using a rock. The straightened version that brizkit did looks nice. Thanks for all the comments

I think its a beautiful photo, I just wish the horizon was level. Great colors though.
