Sunset Over Wanaque

I have been working pretty late this week but on Thursday - despite all the rain we were having I figured I would put the camera in the car and see if I could sneak out during lunch. I didn't leave work until 7:45 and it was non-stop all day. On the way home I watched the sunset start to develop and right before I got home I went up the side of the mountain to try and get a decent vantage point over the reservoir.

These are untouched out of the camera except for some slight cropping.

I really like this photo due to the outline of the trees and the detail. It was taken at 8:19.

The sky was much better on this photo especially with the juxtaposition of the water and the dark mountains separating the two. This was taken at 8:23

The colors in the sky here were great but it needs a little more detail in the mountains. It was taken at 8:37.
