May I know your setup for #5 & #6? ... very nicely done, the sun was not burned out, can see the nice roundness, yet there were enough details left on the jetty such that it's not just one black mass :thumbsup:

newbie with D70s ahhh ... maybe newbie pro

abt the metering of the sunset, I think it work just for this moment of the sunset; wld not work in general I wld say. Best is to do exposure bracketing and shoot very fast.

did u use a macro lens for the spider shots?

I think u're right, the sun is not so "burning" just before it sets ...

like your 5 & 6 however is the "kelong" part of the theme? it could be better if the silhouette of the kelong is more defined.
