A Memory of October

Cold, colorful October sunset. I will remember this night for its extraordinary display of light and color.

Alright. We had 3 of these sunsets in a row with variations of the same colors, cloud formations and light. Pretty spectacular really. On two of those nights I was out shooting at the beach and this is one of the photos I'm most pleased with.

"Developed" from RAW using Lightroom 1.2. Added vibrance. Cloned and healed out dust spots. Curves adjustment and slight saturation gain. Dodge tool used at the bottom left and upper right to bring out a little more detail.

Thanks for looking!
