15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Sunset on the water at Mentor Headlands (Ohio)
I headed out for an afternoon paddle after a day at work. Strolling the beach for an hour taking pictures, I hit the water around 6 p.m. About 25 minutes later the show commenced with the sun eventually fading beyond the horizon around 6:45. Returning to shore in the fading light I looked over my should to witness yet another spectacular view of various shades of yellow, red and orange reflecting off the water. I managed a few pictures but, with the fading light, those didn't turn out as well as this one (sigh).
