Mallory Square. You wouldn't believe the hissing and booing that goes on when a boat passes in front of the sun as it is going down. This was one of the more colorful suns we have seen in a while.

I'm quite partial to a boat silhouette in my sunsets.

Nothing to say. Speechless. As a landscape photographer #2 and #3 are just magnificent. Hope to see more pictures!

Edit: what if you try underexposing the ships? I think it will make the sunset looks more saturated/outstanding

The second one with the sailboat and the cloud as a light modifier is my favorite too.

Me too. I think they add a lot and break up the expanse of sea.

I do underexpose most but I just like these better this time.

The second one is truly stunning (and kind of overshadows the others which also have their merits)

These are all wonderful, I would be proud to have any of them hanging on my wall. If I had a wall with empty space that is.

There are a few disadvantages to the RV lifestyle. We did have some posters mounted on foam core though and have them hanging. Pretty inexpensive and no added weight.
