Afterglow #C3034
Cape Cornwall, England

The afterglow is often more dramatic and beautiful than the sunset - most people left here as soon as the sun went down, and this is what they missed 10 minutes later. One of the best I've ever seen - I had to keep looking up from my camera and saying 'Wow', my hands were shaking as I tried to capture the sky
at it's peak, knowing it was going to make a good photograph
