LOL! I actually use the word jaded a lot. ;-)

Thanks, Michael, for understanding the humour in my commentary. Now I have a beef. The word "jaded" is so inappropriate! Jade is a beautiful name, and everyone I know who has it has many fine qualities and appreciates true beauty in all its forms...

LOL Jade - Now you have narrowed my field even further! Not that I do milky water anyway :-)

Michael, he/she/it has seen the comment so you can put me out of my misery now I suppose! (But I feel the same way about milky waterfall over the rocks in the forested stream shots too!)

Lindy - I hope other voters share your opinion LOL Thank you and a Very Happy (and photographic) New Year to you too.
elliott - I'm so happy you said that - some people I have showed it to cannot believe the colours but that's just the way it was - fantastic evening. We had the same thought - I did try again but the haze was so dense that when the sun sank into it, it almost disappeared and the beam on the water was negligible.
Amberbug - Thank you for commenting - much appreciated.

great consistent believable colors for a sunset. you might have tried again a few minutes later as it dropped further into the haze to get the sun without as much blooming around it. in my favs. good luck. el

How could anyone not include this beautiful sunset scene in their top ten! Good luck, and Happy New Year to you too!

LaRee - ROFLOL. I hope Jade O sees your comment, I'm sure he will enjoy it as much as I do. I find sunsets a beautiful quiet time, people stop what they are doing and enjoy the setting sun and the changing colours. A time for introspection and sharing with others close to you. Glad you liked the composition.

Nice composition. I love sunsets. I've said in the past, "if I ever get so jaded that I cannot enjoy a sunset image, put me out of my misery" ;0)

Jade - I figured if I was going to put in a sunset it would have to be good or I would get the 'another sunset in 14 million' LOL. Appreciate your second sentence!
rabaak - Thank you
Old Finn - Thank you, that is very encouraging.
I appreciate the mentions of composition. The camera was right on the ground and I was using the flip open LCD back. Hard on the knees too LOL I was not fast enough to get the duck centered in the sun's reflection.
