West Maui Sunset 1 - Ka'anapali, Maui (Explored)

I took this sunset shot from a high point off Ka'anapali Beach. Even this late in the day, the sun can be pretty fierce. Instead of using a filter, I experimented with a very small aperture and a high speed. Let me know what you think. Generally, I do not care for filters during sunsets because the photos tend to be rather dark as you shift away from the sun. The photo was taken in March 2013, with my trusty Olympus digital camera. Enjoy.
