Description EDIT #2: I have swapped the image out from the photo I took minutes before the original. It has a slightly better composition and DOF. Comments are welcome!

EDIT: I wasnt 100% happy with saturation of the sky, as =Alex37 pointed out, it was a little over the top! I also cropped slightly to improve the composition.

My #1 FAVOURITE from this holiday! It seems a shame to put it up before all the rest but I want to do it chronologically!
I think this is the best photo I have taken! The title is kinda self explanatory... that sunset was just... POW! I was on a high for hours after these photos!
The sky was seriously nearly that bright! The polarizer helped with contrast but it was still the most spectacular sight!

Really high res with 3 images stitched [][][]

so beautiful, words canΒ΄t discribe.
I really wish I could be at that place, I love tropical scenes and beaches so much,the color of the water,the sunrises..I was 4 when I was in greece,so I donΒ΄t remember much but IΒ΄d like to,else I have just been to denmark, the sunsets at that north and east cost are beautiful and I took some nice shots while sunrays shined between the dark clouds, I just wished IΒ΄ve had a better camera to catch that scene.
your photographs are wonderful I also wished I could draw good enough to catch such a scene, but maybe IΒ΄ll try a digital painting of one of your scenes one day, or at least something similar, if itΒ΄s ok.

Beautiful coloured sky, and exposure mate. Great shot, love the transition between the white/pink water to the aqua blue.

The shade of blue in the sky doesn't seem to mesh well with the rest of the image.

fair enough, I work in hospo, i would advise against it really, not much of a life! Well maybe a bar tender would be ok, or a place with defined and guaranteed hours! I never know how many shifts I will have in a week and I only ever get a start time!
