OK - sunsets. Hackneyed & over-done, but I quite like this one ... I'd like to lose the orange lifebelts in the two boats on the left, but that is unfortunately beyond my level of technical competence   Anyway, here it is, sunset over Crummock Water, Lake District, Cumbria.

Good background, great foreground with the boats, nice water reflections. Not the average sunset.

I like the touch of orange. Don't mess with a great shot!

I certainly wouldn't call it "just" a sunset.  I think the orange color adds mood.  I like the high contrast and low light.  It adds impact.  Nicely done!
