That is one gorgeous looking sunset. I'm a bit of a meteorologist nut so your picture did it for me. Top quality picture, one I cannot - and don't want to - find fault with.

[Graham H]

WOW. Lovely colours. so much to look at.deffo wall hanger. well done

[Dark Star]

Beautiful colours Tristan, top notch (the nit picker in me thinks the horizons a tiny tiny bit out though as much as I too don't like to find fault )

[marky_h]

Great shot - very immersive, and lovely colours. I think John may be right about the horizon :)

[DiddyDave]

Very nice - except,a bit too much water (slight crop there methinks) and its does indeed look a little off level - though this could be an illusion of the water???

His gherkin is not quite vertical :eek:

[EdinburghGary]

I absolutely love it :)

[Yv]

:lol: yes, I think his horizons are a tad wonky but who's looking when the colours grab your attention so much :clap:

[GooGaBu]

Very nice, good colors and well captured !

[Baz777]

His gherkin is not quite vertical :eek:

That just could be an age thing, have the same problem :(


Really cracking shot :thumbs:

[brianfarrell]

Fabulous capture. I'm very jealous. Now get it straightened! ;)

[altyfc]

Beautiful.

Worthy of a frame...

[G-Kenny]

brilliant shot the, relfections in the water are gorgeous, even if the horizon is a tad out well done

[stan the man]

fantastic shot....i'd be really pleased if i had shot it :clap::clap::clap:

[Woodsy]

Cracking shot. Glad you have a clear focal point in this shot as well... Alot of city shots lack this sometimes.

Lovely stuff :)

OOOOOO! one everso slight thing.... It needs a straighten. First building to the right of the gherkin (SP?) needs a slight tilt to the left.

[Ted]

I agree with all those above. really nice. Was wondering when you took this as I live in London and cant remember having a sunset like this for aaaaages!!!

Maybe I just need to get out more

[petemc]

Its really nice but if I was picky I'd do this;

[Mick]

Oh yea, beautiful shot. I dont mind the edited version either, but it might be a tad over done.

Mick.

[petemc]

Only made the river brighter to balance it out more.

[digitalmaniac]

I would buy it if it were printed and sold in shops-nice one

[Woodsy]

I remember we talked about this on IRC pete, I stick by my opinion... for me it looks unnatural. The water has almost the same luminosity as the sky. If you were at a grazing angle, sure, but the water has only patchy bits of "calm" and the rest is almost matt finish. It wouldn't look this bright normally.

Just my opinion.

[petemc]

You say that but the same effect could be achieved with a ND grad on the sky.

[Matt Sayle]

Great shot - very immersive, and lovely colours. I think John may be right about the horizon :)

:agree:

[Kev_mk3]

thats gorgeous - even that much sent a shiver down my spine

[Graelwyn]

Lovely colours, nice and clear, but would also agree it isn't totally level. Wonder what it would look like in almost letterbox format ?

[blinkerz]

Thanks for the CC, i always struggle with the horizon :(

[Dark Star]

Thanks for the CC, i always struggle with the horizon :(

Tristan I feel bad for mentioning such a trivial thing in such a fantastic shot! Forgive me on that point - its an amazing image and full credit to you for getting it to us to enjoy!!:thumbs:

[Pirate Neilsouth]

Wow very nice much prefer the original not the edited one , but it does need a slight straighten :)

[DarknFuzzy]

Deffo one for the wall, I prefer the orginal one personally.

Well done indeed. :)

[chris321]

I straightened it up a bit, hope you don't mind! Click on it for the larger (and straightened version). It's an amazing photo, you should be really proud of yourself!

[Pirate Neilsouth]

^ Much better !! but its made a great shot a much better one :D

[Kev_mk3]

hope you dont mind but can i use that as my desk top its stunning - the more and more i look at it, it kind of makes you feel warm on a miserable day like today

[Woodsy]

You say that but the same effect could be achieved with a ND grad on the sky.

Granted. But my point still stands. It looks unnatural if the luminosities are the same. The water will not give a spectral reflection, so "should" look darker.

[muppetdave]

Brilliant photo :o)

[Whittie]

Absolutely love it!! It may just be me, but i'm not sure if the horizon is quite straight?
(really am nit picking though!)

[simmo]

Stunning:clap:

[Dimitri]

A splendid image, well done.

[oldfart]

brilliant image and straightning did help

[bazzer]

Lovely shot - fantastic colours

[ab$olut]

great shot I love the colours

[jonnypb]

wow great colours, very nicely captured but could do with being straigtened

[Emzi]

love it strong color keeps me mesmerizes

[CarlukeDave]

That is one brilliant photo!

I thought the TV pictures of the sunset at Wimbledon tonight were cool, but that's a different level!

[neo2810]

Superb ... Prefer the original..
