This is my little slice of heaven. The best part is that it's only about 20 miles from my house, so we can catch a sunset any time we want. Indian Rocks Beach, Florida

At twilight the views from Calton Hill are breathtaking and sometimes it is possible to point the camera directly at the Sun to capture a dramatic photo.
I like the myriad of cloud formations and colour that the Panasonic Lumix has managed to pick up.
5 vertical shots combined to one eye popping sunset panorama :D

I captured this photograph recently of the Denver skyline at sunset. I was racing against time as the sun was dropping fast over the foothills and could tell by the clouds in the sky the sunset had all the possibilities in the world to be phenomenal! I was racing (carefully) along I-70 east towards DIA when I decided to jump off and look for a tall building. I spotted a nearby hotel and drove to the top of their 5 floor parking garage - this was still not high enough to see above the trees. I quickly ran inside with my gear and spoke to the concierge introducing myself and the situation outside. I asked if there would be any way to go up to the roof or gain access to a suite on the top floor. To my amazement they agreed and I was introduced to Tom, the security for the hotel, whom escorted me and stayed with me for the 30 minutes + to get this one image I felt was the "one".

The photo can not tell the immense strength of the wind I was facing. The useless tripod kept falling against me and I could not even walk or keep the eyes open.
I set behind a small bunch of rocks and waited for the wind to cease for seconds, got up as fast as I could and shooted as many as I could. Many failures, a few decent shots. I have posted a couple. I was not alone though as the scene and the color of the sky recalled a few brave photographers. The guy in the photo below -met there by chance- is french and I think I have never heard someone cursing in a foreing language as him. The wind was much stronger than his patience.. :D
PS: No post processing! Just a slight crop...
Tramonto dietro Bonifacio
La foto non mostra l'incredibile potenza del vento che proveniva da di fronte. L'inutile treppiedi continuava a cadermi addosso e non potevo nemmeno camminare o tenere gli occhi aperti.
Mi sono messo dietro un mucchietto di sassi attendendo gli istanti in cui il vento si placava, mi alzavo immediatamente, scattavo più che potevo. Molti scatti da buttare, alcuni decenti. Ne ho postati un paio. Ad ogni modo non ero da solo là , in quanto la scena e il colore del cielo avevano richiamo alcuni altri temerari. Il tipo nella foto qui sotto -incontrato là , per caso- è francese e penso di non aver mai sentito nessuno imprecare in una lingua straniera come lui. Il vento era troppo forte per la sua pazienza... :)
PS: Nessuna elaborazione, solo un leggero taglio!
I wish I had another picture to introduce the Sinai Peninsula than this one which doesn't show you much more than clouds, a bush and barren mountain playing hide and seek.
It's just that it's a shame that you can't realize
1) the sheer beauty of those mountains
2) the fact that the red sea is right behind me
3) the fact that Saudi Arabia's coastal mountains are right behind the red sea
It's like when you want to get from Jordan to the Sinai Peninsula in a ferry boat but the captain forbids anyone to go on the upper deck despite the perfect, sunny, windless weather.
