Default Golden New Zealand sunset - seriously golden :)

Hey there folks!

Another shot to share from my NZ archives! Probably my favourite sunset shot of the year.

I have treated this in photomatix but just to really bring out the colours in the sky rather than to create an HDR shot.

Hope you enjoy!

New Zealand Sunset

Great shot and you live in Ozzie - deserted us? It is the time of the year to catch these type of shots - must get out there. Cheers, Bernz

A very nice sunset shot. I love the golden glow behind the tree silhouettes.
