This is a photo that I took last week from the edge of our village showing the sun setting over the Cheshire plain of North West England.

Deeply humanist in his vision, Hugo claims that he is not a photographer. Why not visit his photoblog and decide for yourself.

@Michael Skorulski: Thanks Michael!
Magnificent shot, Ian. You've provided the sky with the lion's share of the palette and it certainly does not disappoint. Stunning!

@Ron: Hi Ron......yes the sky was amazing. I normally wouldn't take a photo of just the sky but this one was too good to pass up :-)
The Light. Wow.

Beautiful colors. If I didn`t know that is was taken in England I would think Africa. Very dramatic landscape

The foreground came up in sepia almost and the sky is still blue! A wonderful mixture, the result is pleasant! The light is so soothing!
