One of the joys of being a salty old seadog, is witnessing some beautiful sunsets and sunrises in pristine, clear waters and fresh air.

Unfortunately this day was not one of the above. There was a large fire burning nicely on Bathurst Island and as a result the sunset became a feast to the eyes. Smoke makes sunsets even more colourful and here is the result.

This first shot has some unusual colours; the sky looks a bit purple and that gives great contrast with the yellowish clouds... Really nice and looks great in Pano, did you crop it or stitch it in PP?

Steve - I think you are rubbing salt into our cold wounds Fab shots - great colours and very warming on a cold Sydney night

About 10 images stitched in Panorama Factory. I played with the colour channels until i was happy with the contrast and colours. It just gives it a boost from the originals.

Chris, it's bloody hot here. A nice cold breeze would be most welcome.

Great sunsets Steve!

Ouch Beautiful!
and on a ship, how did you get such a steady shot in low light

Awesome Steve

Three great shots, with the third being just as tad in front for me - I like the darker colours - more moody somehow.
