[Octane (Humayun)]

Rolf,

I think this was shot towards the final stages of the Belt of Venus disappearing. It's so hard to capture as it only lasts at maximum intensity for a few moments. I wonder if there's a formula for estimating its MaxQ, as it were? Thank you, sir. : )

I think maybe the belt of Venus is a tad too light? It looks more like a patch of blue sky under a pink cloud. But everything else is perfect, I like it very much.

Marc,

Once again, you see the things that I try to portray! We have similar eyes, perhaps? Thanks, mate. : )

Shane,

The softness is due to my polariser getting wet and me quickly scrubbing it with the sleeve of my jumper! I thought it kind of worked and helped give it that mystical feel. : )

Ric,

Thanks, mate. Glad you enjoyed it!

I like the pastel colours you have captured.

Stephen,

Thanks, mate. I might have to go back and perhaps introduce a little more contrast into the sky. Might help pop it a bit more.

Thanks, guys.
