Awesome Sunset! was created by martinastro
Just witnessed a stunning sunset from Maghera with bright Crepuscular rays and beautiful colours. Look at the two striking long dark streaks that are the shadows of distant mountain tops being cast into the sky by the setting sun. Also one image shows a strange green colour above the sunset point. Awesome sight!
