Here's the end result of a gloomy, cloudy day in Toronto. The cloud
cover started to break up, in the late afternoon, so I darted up to
our roof deck, and took this shot of the sunset, with the view of the
Toronto skyline from our roof.

Good shot, Clayton.
Deleting most of the black foreground would make it excellent.

Hi Clayton, I think if I were looking at the scene I would have used
the rule of thirds thus...

I like the focus on the tall buildings at the bottom 3rd line and left
line junction.

It is a matter of taste and yours is a good picture as is. However if
you don't understand the rule of thirds Google it - there are some
excellent tutorials.

I don't want to open a hornets nest but I am sure there are others far
more capable than I who can comment on this cropping idea and perhaps
offer some input.

Thanks for posting the pic I like it and will use it as my desktop for
a few days. OK?

All the best

Barney
