Great pictures! I really like the boat and bird, the touch of wake and glass smooth water are so peaceful. I`ve got a thing about water anyway. These aren`t the greatest pictures but I haven`t tried shots sunsets or rises much.

The one I took of the bird, boat and lake is one of my personal favorites. In your second picture, the sun looks sooooo far away!

M,
That was a great sight from camp the eve before the hunt. (All I did to the pic was to crop, no other adjustments.)
These next two were heading up to the North Kaibab for a grouse hunt.

I like them all; 5sdad, I've fished that lake. First two years out of college I was a science teacher at Ayshire, IA.
Brad - I've not shot a bull in an easy place; like, the bottom of that canyon. It's a beautiful pic but I almost feel sore looking at it

Late last night coming home from the arena, I was wishing I had a camera with me, and kicking myself for not having one. The sunset was absolutely stunning as the sun shone through the gap between the mountains and the cloud edge. The interplay of colors, texture, silhouette, and cloud was enough to make a soon-to-be 13 yo boy ooohh and aaahh.

Two of my favorites.
This one is off the our dock at our cabin in Northern Saskatchewan.
This one was taken while I was out hiking 10 minutes north of my house in a grazing reserve.

Here are a couple recent ones from my backyard. I'm no meteorologist & don't know what kind of cloud that is in the top one. Just call it the USS Enterprise.

A short drive was made up Hart Prairie Road to the west of the San Francisco Peaks to catch the sunset. However, the cloud layers did not allow the evening light to bathe the peaks before the foreground was in shadows. Another night perhaps.
To the west was the better view of the translucent storm clouds and some showers towards Kendrick Peak.

It was the last mearns hunt of the season, so took advantage of a nice sunset Saturday evening. I went to a spot that had a tree and water hole to catch a reflection, but alas the hole contained no water, so "settled" for the silhouette of the tree.
Afterwards, I drove to a point to camp for the evening. THe late evening sky still contained some nice color well after the sun settled below the horizon.
And so the sun cast its blessing on another trip to southern Arizona.

I noticed this old log home on Garland Prairie west of Flagstaff this past summer and thought it would be nice to shoot after a snow at sunset. I went there tonight. As dusk progressed, the sky turned peach before the blue of the earth shadow appeared.
Just Peachy
Earth Shadow. Not too much magenta though.

As we've come to expect, absolutely wonderful, in all regards.
I love the comparison, both pictures do stand alone, either would be great, but nice to show them together to see the difference a few minutes can make.
