Posted by selam at August 10, 2006 01:37 AMWow your appartment really has a lot of views to take photos from/
Posted by Andrew at August 10, 2006 01:41 AMThis is a great one. Did you take it from a balcony or did you just open a window? Nice colors!

Posted by stoph at August 10, 2006 02:12 AMGeat lighting. Makes the city look at peace.
Posted by Jon at August 10, 2006 02:16 AMWooooow. That's one gorgeous sunset! Love your work :-)
Posted by Robin Chyo at August 10, 2006 02:59 AMgreat colors, cropping and feeling... what else to say?
Posted by june at August 10, 2006 04:25 AMyou're so lucky to have such an amazing view of the city. i love all of your rooftop shots.
Posted by London at August 10, 2006 05:06 AMVery cool urban sunset. And this is a perfect example of how the rule of thirds can be broken and still have a really effective image.
Posted by ROB at August 10, 2006 06:09 AMgorgeous
Posted by mel at August 10, 2006 06:29 AMFantastic Sam. Wonderful low light image and the sky and clouds are perfectly exposed.
Posted by Richard at August 10, 2006 07:11 AMThat's another one that would make an incredible desktop. Wow. with a morning like that, how can you be grumpy?
Posted by J. W. Coffey at August 10, 2006 08:30 AMWallpaper please! Love the picture!
Posted by Stephanie at August 10, 2006 09:05 AMSimply beautiful. The color within the sky is great. Nicely done.
Posted by J. Rivera at August 10, 2006 09:10 AMthis snap definately needs a wallpaper version.. awesome
omg nice pic! lovely colors!
would like to have it as a wallpaper!
Posted by Felix at August 10, 2006 09:21 AMReminds me of Miami Vice !
Posted by Hitesh Sawlan at August 10, 2006 09:37 AMIt feels good to be reminded that, in spite of the "news", there are still some corners with quiet beauty. That sun is setting for a night undisturbed by either explosions or paranoia.
Thanks, Sam, for reminding us.
Incidentally, I'm amazed once again by your ability to handle a lighting situation that would appear to need a number of different exposures simultaneously. I understand HDR processing can help; but I expect, like with most imaging tools, much depends upon the perception and skill of the one behind the camera. A great image! Thanks.
nice light. part of the building on the right edge of the photo is a bit distracting, but overall nice warm tones.
Posted by Photoblog Community at August 10, 2006 09:56 AMBeautiful!
Posted by Lisa at August 10, 2006 09:58 AMGorgeous sunset. Great mood in this one.
Posted by Graham at August 10, 2006 10:15 AMDude, we totally need a wallpaper of this!
I love having your Toronto cityscapes on my desktop. This one is beautiful.
Posted by Chris at August 10, 2006 10:31 AMYou owe me a new keyboard--mine's all shorted out with drool.
Posted by Nate at August 10, 2006 10:37 AMHow do you get the colors in the sky and clouds so vibrant? Are they naturally like that or do you Photoshop that to make them stand out more? If so, what techniques do you use?
Posted by Scott at August 10, 2006 10:37 AMI would like details on how you got the light balance if you get the time. This is very hard for me to get with sun like that. You always do so wonderful.
Posted by Nate at August 10, 2006 10:55 AMLove the shot, the cloud coverage and the way the sun catches the buildings are cool.
Posted by Craig Wilson at August 10, 2006 10:59 AMTotally beautiful.
Posted by Susanna at August 10, 2006 11:05 AMwow, it's so dramatic.
Posted by wanda at August 10, 2006 11:08 AMWallpaper! Wallpaper! Wallpaper! This gorgeous picture demands a wallpaper to accompany it!
Posted by Kristian at August 10, 2006 11:10 AMbeautiful
Posted by lisa at August 10, 2006 11:34 AMi've always wanted to watch the sunrise in a high rise building. I feel like i'm in a movie, the detail is awesome! .Thanks for capturing this moment, its breathtaking.
Posted by Charlotte at August 10, 2006 11:36 AMGreat Pic! Always amazed with your work! Question, when are forums going back up? Thanks!
Posted by Mauricio Tellez at August 10, 2006 12:09 PMaren't sunsets a we bit cliche in terms of photoblogs... its is a good shot but by no means one of your best.
Posted by cliche at August 10, 2006 12:26 PMIs this the view from your apartment? If so, you're one lucky dude! Amazing pciture.
Posted by jesse at August 10, 2006 01:08 PMI've been following your pictures for some time, now and have used several of your images as wallpapers. I think to is wallpaper worthy.
Amazing picture.
Posted by Jeremy at August 10, 2006 01:52 PMvery nice picture, i like the dramatic sky and all the details in the city.
Posted by Johan at August 10, 2006 02:03 PMtop half has colours that are great...the sun actually made me squint before i realized that it was a photo. the bottom half is lacking any punch and doesn't look any different than something I would take. Why did you crop out the stack to the right? It would have framed the view nicely.
Posted by CrankPhoto at August 10, 2006 02:19 PMit doesn,t matter where we r in the earth, sunset is always glorious to remember and see.
very nice.
again another awesome photo .. great great job ...u r a true artist ....DAMET GARM

Posted by martin at August 10, 2006 04:23 PMWonderful! Really stunning.
Posted by Laurie at August 10, 2006 05:23 PMthis is a beautiful picture, great work!
Posted by Drew at August 10, 2006 05:40 PMGreat exposure here Sam, got the sunset and retained all shadow detail.

Posted by Devna at August 10, 2006 11:46 PMYou make me wish I lived in a city!
Posted by geckonia at August 11, 2006 12:45 AMNice view You've got. Maybe You will try HDR to lighten buildings - picture will be even better.
Posted by Lukas at August 11, 2006 08:17 AMGreat shot, it's my new wallpaper, but it doesn't look as nice anymore :o(
