Thank You, All ... for your kind comments ... much appreciated :)

While taking the sunset photo(s), someone on the boat asked "how do you take a picture of a sunset?" -- I said: "I dunno, just point into the sun and hope for the best" --- heheheheee

Otherwise, yes there was some planning involved, mainly framing and using fill-flash to illuminate the boat's bow

Thanks again for visiting and for your kind comments

Cheers,
