I was shooting a presentation function at the local harness racing track
and I could see this sunset developing. A break in proceedings coincided
with the sunset's best moment so I went out on the balcony and took the
shot.

The balcony rail provided a steadying rest and along with the Pentax
shake reduction allowed a shutter speed of 1/20s.

Ash from Chilean volcano traveled around the southern hemisphere and
disrupted air traffic  but probably helped this display.

Very spectacular.  We're not seeing anything like that here although the
ash cloud must be approaching - all air traffic out of Sydney has been
cancelled.


Cheers
