Hey AO, I was expecting a sunset, but this is so much better. I love the capture of the sunset reflected on this palm. We don't have any palms, but I would love to try something like this......an idea is forming in my head......

It came out excellent AO my friend. The shadows from the sunlight really give the image depth. Another piece of excellent work AO. Whatever you touch turns to gold.

Jake.
