Pixel Joint Forum: WIP- Vista Default Africa Sunset

Message

   My entry to this weeks vista default color challange .
When i was looking for lascape pics on google, i became drawn to the prospect of making a nice sunset silouhetted sort of piece, which totally blew all the other green, blue and other non-sunset colours all out of the water...but this is what i have so far, any critiques would be appreciated :D

	Reminds me of the Lion King. Damn that movie was awesome. I think the biggest critique would be that your sun and it's 'glow' and quite circular, but kind of offset to the side. Otherwise it looks nice :)
