Shot from a dock on Poplar Lake, on the Gunflint Trail near the top of the Superior North Shore, I used the pano feature on my iPhone 11 instead of my DSLR. I have to say, this one is my personal favorite sunset photos in some time, the only thing keeping it looking a bit like Vincent's work is that the clouds are not spinning into spirals (nudge, nudge, wink, wink). 6

Great sunset photograph, 'Nik'.
The reflections are very special. But that's not the only reason why I love this terrific capture.
The symmetry of the composition and the lead in to the setting sun couldn't have been chosen any better.
S+F. Thanks for sharing, 👍 !

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

Tis an eye catching capture. Like the others have said, the reflections are gorgeous. What do they call that type of cloud I wonder.

These are stratocumulus clouds, Carol. Stratocumulus are low-level clumps or patches of cloud varying in color from bright white to dark grey. They are the most common clouds on earth recognised by their well-defined bases, with some parts often darker than others. They usually have gaps between them, but they can also be joined together. They range in height from 1,200 - 6,500 ft. and, in Latin, the name means stratus - flattened, and cumulus - heap.

The words "flatten heap" will always leap into mind when I see these clouds now, never to be forgotten. Great title, we were talking earlier today about the roll of patience for a photographer - and the shots I could have had with a little more of it. This picture takes all words away, I can just stare at it, a fav for me.
