just shame the sun is in the middle of the upper part of the pic and that those power lines lead your eye away from it... different crop would help a lot because otherwise it's a nice capture

Thank you for the help!

How about this one? I wanted to capture the power lines as they stretched so far in the frame depth.

Great colors and nice job on the sun not flaring. Second crop is much better IMHO

did you play with some settings on the 2nd crop? the trees look a bit more defined
but i like the colours and the shot a lot, very clean

I took 5 different shots framing the sun and telephone poles differently each time. Neither picture is cropped. Just resized to post.
