The story behind this image

Another sunset taken at sea during a cruise with my wife Liz.

This one has much more drama that the previous sunset image, with rays bursting out through the clouds on the horizon.

I've noticed that sunsets at sea tend to be much crisper than those on land, presumeably due to the clearer air away from the coast.
