I took this picture in mid-March, off the side of a highway...haha. This is one of my pictures that I like, and I hope you do too. Very Happy

Geep! It's kind of fuzzy and unclear, probably because the sun is right there. *points to large circular blob in the middle* Did you photoshop it or anything, because it looks slightly funny and weird. Or maybe it's the sun just being bright. Razz

Hiya!

It's a nice picture--if a little fuzzy. Ye, the sun looks a little fake but it certainly gives the picture a lovely image. The only thing that brings it down for me, is the road and the signs. They seem a little out of place, and I think they detract from the main picture. I would try sharpening this out, and making everything below the sun a nice silhouette.

Good luck!

that picture is nice, but a liitle bit fuzzy. next time, before submitting, you might want to photoshop it to take out the fuzziness a bit.

but, over all, it's a nice pic. good job on capturing the sunset.

Goodness gracious great ball of fire! The sun looks so freakin' huge and it's very romanic. Agreeing with the others, it is fuzzy, but you can still make out what it is. Good shot though. Keep up the good work! Peace. Cool

If you scale down the image it will help clear the fuzziness. I can't really see it all at once cause of how massive it is, but I do agree it is fuzzy and the sun is very striking.

Dude... that's big. Shocked

It definitely needs to be scaled down; I can't see a thing as it is now. Even after I copied it into another program and made it smaller so I could see it, the photo was still blurry, so that's somewhat disappointing.

The sun looks really good, though, and I like the road signs and the way the road curves. I think the stuff on the right is a little distracting, though, so I'd consider a bit of croppage. Wink

I have a hard time reviewing this picture because it is too big.

From what I saw it looks pretty good. Especially the sun. Good use of light and shadow. Very Happy

Over all nice photo.
