1028hPa, Passage of cold front

Amazing sunset today as the light spread through the light dusting of clouds left by the passage of a cold front down the UK. Took a load of photos, but it was hard to capture the amazing view - smoke flowing through shadowed valleys and undulating hills below a fantastic skyscape.

Anywho, today was laid-back and involved not much more than making soup and ink sketches in my notebook and some tunes on the clarinet to the beginning of this. No more headache either, which is nice.


Does anyone have any pointers into taking sunset shots and not having the detail of the shadow bleached by an exposure set on the sky? HDR, perhaps??
