This is my favorite from this series (so far). Really nicely seen. I love the silhouette of person and palm against that sky and below the lights. A celebration of rich color!

John from Geneva, United States
Absolutely gorgeous, Susan.
I love the colors of the sunset correlating with the lights on the ride, the motion of the chairs without the ride lights being blurred, the palm silhouettes, the rich blue sky, all fantastic.
A very nice catch indeed.
