Simple yet Picturesque:Getting a great sunset in the city is hard to accomplish. You've got too many buildings blotting out the horizon to see an actual setting sun the likes of which Boracay is known to produce.
Yet once in a while... like this instance, you see how the clouds, the weather, the buildings... all these seem to just form the right mix - and you have a simple, yet spectacular sunset... not by seeing the sun itself setting down - but with the effects it has on the building - creating a nice silhouette; how the sun's rays seem to visibly radiate from behind the building; and how the low cloud covering just allows enouhg sunlight to likewise shape it's outline.
I was obviously at the right place, at the right time to get this picture. Lucky for me, I had my camera to take the picture. Then it was a simple matter to increase the contrast to further emphasize the sunset. Nothing too exagerrated... nor too complicated. The better pictures just let the subject - in this case, nature and it's surroundings, speak for itself.
