During a recent visit to Washington, I found myself on the Southwest DC Waterfront at sunset. After having some dinner … without my camera … I witnessed this absolutely gorgeous sunset. Armed only with a smart phone, I took these images as the sun was a deep, golden yellow. It was just above treetop height and offered me the ability to create these dramatic shots that silhouetted a huge crane and the boats tied up in the harbor.

Though my camera would have recorded significantly more detail in the highlights, most people would nevertheless be quite pleased with this image.
