Into the setting sun ...

The heat of the entire photograph along with the sharp focus on that foreground element makes for a powerful and stirring image. Amazing, Ron.

I agree with the heat. Very rich orange and reds. It feels like the end of a hot summer day and sunset is going to bring some much needed relief.

very dramatic colors, and you have composed this in a really different way (with only part of the church showing). Well done....

The colours are divine and that single spire is a work of art, you took it brilliantly at its most advantageous angle, bravo X10

This is definitely a very dramatic photo, Ron. The tones are outstanding!

Apart from the sunset painting everything rich deep tones, the church has (for me at least) a rather sinister appearance in deep red with its dark arched windows. But this is the beauty of AM3, and how everybody will interpret an image differently.

Love the deep reds and oranges...and how you've seen and captured the image. Excellent.

Love the hue that the setting sun has given to the church. Very beautiful Ron. It is also true what Mike (Observing) says about each one's interpretation of a scene. Great picture.

Gorgeous...reminds me of your earlier statue series with the dramatic sky. I actually thought of that series when I was processing my beach sunrise pics (coming up this week) because of the amazing colors in the sky! Nice work, as always.

This is STUNNING. I LOVE this. The rich colors, tones, and details. It reminds me of a book jacket.
