Key Largo Sunset

I had just checked into a little cabin on Key Largo when I noticed the colors the sunset was producing. I quickly grabbed the camera bag and tripod from the car and scampered down to the dock, thankfully having a halfway decent landscape when I got there.

This pic is a good example of why you should invest in a high-end film scanner if you're going to be serious about photography. My inexpensive 30-bit scanner simply could not handle the range of colors and light that the slide held, and I spent quite some time working on the scan until it matched the original slide as closely as I could get. As it is, there's still detail on the docks I just couldn't bring out.
