Sunset over the Calder valley (4)

One from an April evening last year, photographed from just outside Warley, looking up the Calder valley above Luddenden Foot. I think I was using a grad filter, hence the exaggerated sun rays. There's a lot about this photo that, technically, I don't like - I'm still struggling to balance exposure and manage noise and flare in sunset shots. At least practising is a lovely experience and, despite the technicalities, this one still represents the beauty of the scene.

Camera/lens settings: ISO 200, f/32, 1/15s, 32mm, tripod & graduated ND filter.
