beautiful beautiful picture. I like how the colors of the sunset make the tree stand right out. The sharpness of the photo are very good too.

Hi Martin W. Nice shot! Good post-processing too. Maybe it would be more interesting if the silhouette of an animal is present. Or perhaps a bird flying in the air. But that's just a plus. Thanks for sharing!

Well done Martin. A beautiful sunset with foreground silhouette easily identifiable. The tree is sharp as a tack with no haloing. As an added feature you included the distant mountains to anchor. Congrats.

I can definitely see this being a large backdrop in a tanning salon, or some sort of business establishment. For it's simplicity, I find it still manages to stay interesting and captivating. The details and sharpness of the needles contrast well against the sky. Good stuff.
