Three grandsons and two daughters here for dinner and just after we sat down, I grabbed the camera and took two quick shots of the sun lighting up the buildings in the east.  It really was way more dramatic in person, and sometimes the opposite happens.  You take a few shots thinking they're okay and probably nothing special and then BOOM!  An unforgettable image.  Maybe that's why I like photography so much:  take lots of shots, get some nice photos and sometimes a stunner.  :)
