Right...I see some pretty great sunsets here, but I don't know if they appear that vivd, on camera (and this is viewing second hand on an off-the-shelf HP monitor). Is it a really good camera? I shall have to join the sunset snappers group.

The trick to a good sunset picture for many cameras is to underexpose it a little bit. Sometimes the cameras think they are smarter than you, trying to lighten the picture, but they're wrong.

The times I spent camping in the southwest, the sunsets seemed more pastel, than they do further north.

I think that has to do with super fine dust particles in the atmosphere, I read something about how smog and other shit contributes the the colors of the sunsets.
