Not fish, just a cool sunset

Strangely unnatural and very interesting, all at the same time. What's your light source? I would assume it's a flash. If so, and you were able to recreate this scene again, it would be cool to try stepping down the flash a little, so you get more background, and less mailbox. I'm not talking about making the mailbox a silhouette, but just lit more subtle, more moody.

I had a 580 flash for the light source. I also shot it with less flash comp but it was pitch black out pretty much except the sky so you don't get to see much of the ground naturally. Exposing for the sunset pretty much blacked out the ground, heres that one.

Very nice picture, I really like the second one.

On a side note, seems like a very oddly placed mail box. LOL
 
great!
no movement, but it feels like the sky is moving a mile a minute!
the photo would be nothing without the box!
all hail box!
i love box!
