Well, Imagine how I feel when I think I am "...smart enough to figure out all this photography stuff..." and I use my very capable and sophisticated mega-zoom camera, tweaking the settings for optimal results, and SWMBO uses her silly little pocket-sized camera on full auto... and sometimes her pictures come out better in terms of exposure, color balance, image sharpness, etc. than mine do. I take solace in the knowledge that at least I can take pictures that her camera simply isn't capable of taking.

Attached is a low-res copy of a sunset I took from my deck. What makes it unusual is it isn't the sun behind that cloud. The photo is facing due South, and the sun had actually set way off to the right (West) 10 minutes earlier, and was lighting up the cloud from below the horizon.
