Crater Lake Sunset

I love sunset and I am collecting my own shots.I looked for them on my travel.

I can learn from your posting. Thanks for sharing...

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing.

An absolutely very well deserved 7!!  All has already been said above. 

I sometimes think that people rate excellent photos badly just to try and uplift their own.  I have decided not to rate photos in a specific category if I have posted something recently in that category.  It would not be fair... I rather look up photos in other categories and rate on them. 

Very well done.  Regards, Engela

To anyone rating this image with a 5 or less -I suspect you could not capture an image of this caliber in your dreams.  I certainly would enjoy taking a look at your portfolio of work and offering my ratings and critiques. I give this one a 7.  It is an outstanding image.  I wish I could have been there to enjoy the experience.

Amazing work, I love your composition.

Wonderful photo,the lighting is fantastic,was there any manipulation in PS

simply stunning, 7 of course!

Zack, this is an outstanding, exceptional photo.  Sevens all the way.   My question for PN is,  why allow anonymous rating?  3?   If a name was attached to a rating, maybe a critique would accompany it, and the artist could improve.  Aloha!

its a great image. the natural light is well captured. clear crisp image and somewhat of a unique composition for this genre because of the tree placement in the shot (often people omit such a structure for the sake of the quintessential landscape shot; or, they would include the whole tree which would loose some of the character through loss of clarity and detail)

thats what earns it top marks for me

composition, colours, lighting, all simply beautiful. 

This is a great image.  In color or B&W. I'm curious about the front of the tree.  Was that flash fill or did you use some sort of HDR process? It's lighter than you'd expect from where the sun is, but it works.  One pet peeve I have though is the name in a picture, especially because it's so bright.  It pulls you away from the impact of the place.  When I hold my thumb up to block seeing the name, the picture gets even better.  Nice shot.  Alan.

BEAUTIFUL image.....Excelente Captura........

Best regards...............

Simple but best.  Nice light and strong foreground.  Best Regards,
