My three daughters (Melissa, Isabella & Ashley) watching the sunset across Lake Michigan. Photo was taken on August 28th, 2005 in South Haven, Michigan.
This is a beautiful scene, the setting of sun, the colors of the sunset, the lighthouse in the distance and the ocean, your three daughters make great additions to this image, I love this shot!
What a great shot... the sunset is magic, i love the blending of the colours, the silhouette of the girls and the pier really do justice to the image... beautifully captured
Have to agree this is a magnificent shot. It will be going into my favourites (not many make it there) my last piece was similar with water and silhouettes and a comment was left to crop out the water and silhouettes. Hope they don’t come and say the same here. If you would like to see it.

I can only agree with what the others have already said...a beautiful and touching composition...makes you feel as if you were one of those people standing there in awe...a marvellous scene and very well done.:Pat.
Now that’s better than your average family snapshot. You seem to have all the elements placed just right, the colours are gorgeous and the figures on the pier add an extra element of interest.
Thanks for all your wonderful comments. I took a ton of pictures that day and this one was my favorite so I edited and uploaded it first. (I'll have more to come later.) I would like to correct XYZ on one small detail, the body of water is Lake Michigan, not the ocean (it is very much fresh water). :p
Very professional. I love the colors and the border is great. If possible, I'd suggest trying to clone out the obstructions in the water, and maybe the people on the pier, but that's personal preference.
Beautiful photo that means more and is enhanced by the theme of Daughters. I like the font you chose and the framing. Neither takes away from the amazing photo. Very nice work.
I was going to say, you must live in Michigan to get the sunset on Lake Michigan! I'm jealous- I live in Wisconsin and the only colors one sees across the lake are in the wee hours of the morning :-/ The silhouettes add considerably to the photo, which would be very nice on its own. Speaking of which, I must look for more photos like this in the future!
This has got to be one of the most picturesque photos I have ever seen on caedes. The colors, the sillhouttes, the pier in the background, the waves - everything came together in this one to make it absolutely breathtaking. 10/10 and straight into my favs!
"This existence of ours is as transient as Autumn clouds. To watch the birth and death of beings is like looking at the movements of a dance. A lifetime is a flash of lightning in the sky. Rushing by, like a torrent down a steep mountain. "

No Sig, Just, I want to say "Thank You" to all of the talented photographers for giving me the most beautiful desktops and screensavers I could ever imagine. The artistry here is breathtaking.
