HDR Christmas Sunset 06. Winds 60+ mph made this an interesting shot as the winds was nearly laying the grass down flat at times. This is extremely close to the way my eyes saw it as it was getting very dark very fast. Hope you enjoy it, and a Very Merry Christmas to all my friends here at the DI forum. Thanks for looking.

A spectacular shot! Love all the detail there is to see even in the foreground. The color of that sunset is terrific and with winds as 60+, I am amazed your camera wasn't blown away.

Thank you! Yes it was extremely cold with the winds blowing that hard, temps were around 35 degrees but the chill factor was much lower, and yes, lol I did have quite a time holding the camera down. Just standing still was a task within itself. Not a good day for HDR. :)

About the comments of it being cold... *chuckles* That's T-Shirt weather for us up here! ;) 30ºF? A few weeks ago it was -40ºF up here, heh...

Though, You took a VERY amazing photo. :) Great job, I love the overall mood of the picture.

Wow! I couldn't imagine it being that cold. Several years ago it dipped down to -30F degrees here for three consecutive nights, I remember going outside just to see what it felt like because we never normally get even close to being that cold. :)

Thanks for all the nice comments, they are always appreciated.

That picture is stunning....great job on that. For sure a 5/5. If that doesn't want to make ya run out and get a really great camera, not sure what will.

I absolutely love it...the barn half-shrouded in darkness and the road leading into the dark abyss. Words fail me. 2 thumbs way up.
