Thanks Jim - it was also a bit on the smokey side that evening which helped to push the golds/oranges into the evening hues. The smaller specks are indeed clouds. Towards the end of this sunset was another panorama I posted showing a sun pillar which is just starting to show in this earlier set of captures.
There is an issue with Uploading Photos (attachjments). I am not sure what the problem is, and I am looking into it. You can still try to Create your Threads and Upload your Photos, but it is hanging up during the Upload.
