Description The sky is falling
on this setting son
Echoes of silence
ringing loud and long
This isolation
is the king of pain
A lost horizon
in an ocean of flames

I've been here before,
but not as I stand here today
I wait for the dawn
ready to walk
into the light

beautiful shot! I'm really amazed at the range of colors you were able to capture; it's not often you get to see such a vibrant green in the sky

I agree with zoom - looks more like a manip, or maybe just overly-saturated in Photoshop?

There are so many shots of sunsets on dA but this one I think totally stands out! I love the way the colors change as they fan out from the horizon! Makes it look like the clouds are running away. Beautiful shot!
