Thanks Sporran, although I would have much preferred to have been in California snapping the sunset where you were !

Actually, it was my husband who took the photo whilst he was in California on a business trip, lucky duck that he was! I was back home on the other side of the continent. I've been as far west as Colorado, but that was a number of years ago. I'll get to California one of these days though, I'm sure!

P.S. I love your moonrise and sunrise photos too, souperman. I almost feel like I'm actually in Caithness gazing up at that moon - it looks so real on my screen! :D

On the outkirts of wanaka, i have to admit the picture isnt mine, i was in this position so many times but i either forgot to either bring or even use my camera, I find it way too easy to get wrapped up in the moment and then think "wouldnt that have made a great picture... D'OH..."

Thank Something for the internet as most of my best memories are off people i met while traveling and hiking who kept in touch and shared the photo's that they managed to take while in my company.

I have a loads of others that are my own work but the quality isnt too clever as i only had a low MP camera with me at the time.

You lucky thing. I don't even have a window in my kitchen, just a door. We pulled the wall out between the kitchen and lounge though to open it up a bit.

That's a great picture Deemac, brought back memories of my first visit to Caithness when we had one of the best sunsets I have ever seen.The sky and The Pentland Firth went through shades of yellow,to orange and then flame red, we watched from Dunnet Head as it transformed the whole vista.

I am going to assume that you are directing that to me. You are referring to Highlander? I think his name was Connor Maclead.

It was a couple of years ago but I think I had a ND filter and a Grad ND filter to balance the sky/water and enable a long exposure. An exposure time of approx 25 seconds gives the water it calm glassy look.

I did the same with the shot below, this is Crummock Water at sunrise.

Quite the opposite Lizz. Red sunsets are more frequent when there is *more* pollution in the air, especially smoke. You should see some of the reds we get after large brush fires in California.

However there is some influence of particle size too. When there is a lot of dust (as opposed to tinier smoke particles), sunsets tend to be yellow.

Some of the best sunsets happen during harvest time, the dust in the air from harvest providing the pollution.
