Description
This was the view at a Fish Camp at Lake Tohopekiliga near Kissimmee, Florida on a cool December evening. The reflection from the rippled water doubled the drama of the fire like sky, and presents the wisp of blue with a variation of a sky containing a painting of every red possible. I have been seeking this sky. THIS was the right place, and the right time that I have been seeking. This is a gift that was given to me, and the equally grateful fisherman who was sitting on the dock next to me. I was afraid that I would not do it justice. It would be a horrible beauty to waste.

Dick, this magnificent gem slipped by me when you submitted it to Orange Euphoria several years ago. I have pinned it to the newly created Orange Euphoria board on Pinterest. Wishing you and your work much success! Fav/tweet/pinned!

Thanks. Right time ... right place. And right clouds. The best sunsets are 15 minutes after the other photographers leave.

Thank you for hosting, Lisa. One of these days I am going to do that. It looks like a good way to meet people.
Dick Hudson
You, also, have some great sunsets in your portfolio. I am sure you share the rush of a perfect sky, and the near desperation to be able to catch the fleeting beauty. As experienced as you are, I really appreciate your encouragement.

Thank you, Bob and Priscilla. It was a real pleasure to see this in real life. No camera can capture such beauty.
