I prefer the first one because of the detail visible in the foreground. I wonder how the scene would have looked using HDR processing.

they are both beautiful moments in time and why we love living in Florida.

I'm leaning toward the second one due to the 'odd' colors in the first.

I agree, but both look slightly overcooked to my eye.

My first instinct was toward #2, but the more I looked at them, I like #1. #2 has no foreground, I like #1 for the shimmer in the foreground and the sky is less somber with more color. Always love the pink/blue sunset mix, and also getting the intense yellow/oranges really gives a full spectrum of color.

I’ve shot more sunsets than my computer can keep track of. I like the second shot for the balance and color variety.

I like the first due to the color in the sky, the somewhat lit foreground and the sunlight shining on the grass.

Thanks, NoSocks; living near the ocean Sunset shots are inevitable & I don't get tired of them.
