Looking at the shot after taking it, I also agree that more water may have been warranted. Brandt, I understand what you are saying about the leading lines. It seems that the wedge of blue leads the eye down and to the right. I think that my major problem with this scene is that I wasn't prepared for it. Lots of cloud cover had rolled in, and I thought that this meant that the sun would be blocked by the clouds and a good sunset would not be possible. As the sun was setting, I was shooting reflections in some large puddles of water nearby and not really paying too much attention to this part of the sky. Just a few moments before the moment of maximum intensity of the sunset I looked around. Behind me, I saw a red glow on the horizon like none I had ever witnessed. I was running around looking for foreground, looking for something to make a good composition. I couldn't find anything, so I had to start shooting or else I would miss out on this photographic opportunity.
