•  Info After a long break, I come back with a risky nomination (the kind I prefer!). Yes, most sunsets are equally beautiful but some are more equal than others; I believe this is one of them. I went through all FPs of sunsets/sunrises and realized that the subject is no longer popular. Of the 34 entries, the last is from 2019 and only 4 were promoted after 2015!

Oh, there have been plenty of sunsets and sunrises promoted since then, but these days they are mostly in the galleries of the place they were taken at. While you were gone, a lot has happened with the way Galleries and FP Categories are organized. Go to Category:Sunsets and click on the little icon tool for viewing FPs (or QIs, VIs, Media). That way you can see most of them. Or visit Featured pictures of sunsets or Featured pictures of sunrises. Recently promoted examples of shooting straight into the sun: 1, 2, 3, 4. --Cart (talk) 17:59, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

 Comment Excellent, all of them! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:46, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

•  Comment I feel like the composition would be stronger if some of the left side were cropped. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:45, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
•  Comment You are right King of Hearts, the rule of the thirds applies nicely here. It was cropped on the left and top. I took the liberty of keeping the same nomination because no one assessed the image yet. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:28, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
•  Support Subtle pleasing in its own way. Nice crepuscular rays. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 20:50, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

•  Oppose. I don't think the image is as breathtaking as the view must have been. Despite high contrast, the blacks and brights and colors seem bleak, there's no excitement here. Did you mean to black the bottom part out completely? If yes, there are some brighter parts on both right and left which feel accidental. Also, the photo does not seem sharp enough either in foreground, or in infinity.  podstawko  ●talk  15:30, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
