post2cd,

It looks like there might be a good photo in here somewhere, but the kites keep getting in my way. They look like dirt spots on your lens and keep distracting me. Maybe a longer lens to catch the kites, or just try the sunset without the kites.

I would agree with that - fantastic cloud but the kites are little better than dust on the sensor!

Perhaps if you could get one kite much closer in the foreground it would pull things together better (or just aim higher, miss the kites and make the most of clouds and lighting like that!).

I agree with the other two...the kites look like specks on the lens......I had to look again and see if I could even tell they were kites.
