About Sunset on Lake Okoboji in northern Iowa. Beautiful blue-water lake. This was the only sun we saw all weekend, so I'm glad I caught it.

Sweet shot- I love lake Okoboji- we went up there last summer and did a scuba dive there! Very nice sunset photo. My husband's family is in NW Iowa, so we get up there often.

A great thunderhead in the distance. Looks like a great place to spend some time. Don.

Beautiful sunset shot, Mark, and well composed! Some interesting cloud formations lit up by the sun, too.

Beautiful colours and great exposure, looks like something you would see in Hawaii.

Hi Mark,

Awesome tones, and a rather spectacular skyscape. I think the trees and the patio in front are a bit redundant to this image, and kinda mess with the serene atmosphere, eventhough you captured them very well, showing the details and contrast and not rendering them into silhouettes. IMO, the boat, buoy and slip of land in the rear, together with those awesome evening colours would already have been enough...

Cheers,

Hugo

Thanks, Hugo. I always appreciate your perspective. I struggled composing this for many of the reasons you pointed out. In fact, I have an image just as you described with only the boat and buoy in the foreground.

Thanks again for the thoughts.

Mark
