Säntis Abendrot

Taken from one of the many hills overlooking Herisau, this picture shows the Säntis just before sunset. The light moves fast at this time of day, and I was also trying to capture enough pictures for a panorama within the same time frame. I will be the first to admit that the color may not be quite right. The capture is good, but too blue for this time of day. I have tried to recreate what I saw. Sharpness is outstanding, of course, IMNSHO.
