When I glanced up from the computer, I discovered one of the most glorious displays of evening light we've had all year. The drizzle and mist over the river caught the sun's fading light, turning the river into a wonderland.
The black mark in front of the hills of Washington is a buoy on the river.
Zooming changes the color of the sunset. In this case, it became more dramatic, but less real. This is how it came out of the camera - I didn't tweak. What I really liked and tried to capture was the momentary straightness of the sun's reflection over the water as it poured through the gap in the hills. Between my first shots and this one, the sun moved just enough to take one of the piers of the bridge into its path.

They are all beautiful, but the top one is just SUPERB! :)
Wonderful light in all of the shots! My favorite is the first one, too - the reflected light and the shadows work beautifully.
Oh my gosh what beauty! I agree, the top is wonderful!
Lovely... and another vote for the first one.
