WOW!!! This is the most awesome sky panorama I've ever seen! Your exposures were perfect on this shot! Very, very impressive scene, Patrick! I cannot understand why this did not win in last July's contest. #106903Patrick Campbell May 26, 2019
Why thank you Gary! I kinda like it too. :-) I have had to learn to be philosophical about photo contests. Beyond a certain level of technical proficiency, it comes down to subjective judgements about the artistry, originality, or whatever. Maybe the person or persons doing the selecting were tired of sunsets. And even with seasoned professionals you will find some differences of opinion as to the merits of an individual photo. So I just try to keep at it, and try not to get too caught up in the judging process. Otherwise it drives me crazy! #106923John White May 26, 2019
