I was trying to think of something clever to say, but failed. I am tired after a busy day.
But not so tired that I can't enjoy your wonderful photo.
Thank you!

My camera just never captures the true brilliant hues, but this is gorgeous.

What camera do you have?
My usual practice is to "enhance" sunsets, sunrises in the computer by increasing saturation, lightening dark areas and generally ending up with a prettier picture to show folks. Plus I have a good Olympus camera.
Here is the picture straight out of the camera. Thank You!

(23,155 posts)15. You definitely had a lot to work with.
I love the enhancements.

It is unusual around here to see cloud colors from a sunrise showing in the opposite direction.
