Hello Pentti ,
Some ones could think that this sky is unreal . But it is ! I've got a similar one in my gallery . A fantastic sight , no doubt , during a very short moment . You've got the chance to have an interesting subject to compose the picture , as this ligthened high building .
Well done .

Hi Pentti!

Lovely sky, the cloud formations and its colors are surreal! Love the fiery mood in this photo! Although it would be really more nice if the subject was a bit more interesting. Thanks for sharing!

HAve a great day,
Matt

Hello Pentti,

Congratulations for your extraordinarily big version, very nice for look at.
Incredible how we see the colors to the sky, with middle of the picture the enlightenment of the building.
You play excellent with light and shadows.
Composition and presentation are excellent nice colors too.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice Sunday,
John.

Hi Pentti,
i agree with you, this must be one of the best sunsets i ever have seen also. It looks like an enormous fire from an explosion or like a warzone or..well i don`t know actually but it looks incredible and is very beautiful. Thanks for sharing this moment!
Have a nice evening.
Boa

Hi Pentti
great picture of this impressing sky. Its colour is really amazing and the buidling can still be seen in detail. Good work with the exposure time.
Thanks for sharing
