Pink Louisiana Sunset

by Frank Garcia. Photo taken on 1-11-10 around 5:45pm (CST) in Broussard, LA. The photo is a High Dynamic Range (HDR) photo. I combined 7 different shots with exposure values ranging from +2.70 EV to -3.68 EV. The tonal curve values were adjusted to render the given image.

The clouds behind me, at the time of sunset, were pink, but the clouds at the location of the sun were orange (that photo will also be submitted to Astronomy.com). As soon as I took the photos, the colors disappeared as the sun sank lower below the horizon.
