Not sure if this qualifies because I only stay there part time with my children but will add it anyway.
It's a view I see every sunset but between houses, so I determined to make something of it last week and took a short walk, 50 metres? with the D5100 to capture the sunset, which turned out to be a quite reasonable one.
D5100, 18-105 f3.5-5.6 VR at 24mm, 1/1000 Sec @ f10. Taken as an NEF.
Entirely in Lightroom 3 with minimal adjustments. Exposure was spot on, I upped the saturation slightly, boosted the black to get rid of faint images in the foreground and a little sharpening, oh, and I did a spot graduation selection on the sun to locally reduce the exposure a little because it was glaring a bit.
I added the copyright and border in Photoshop. Saved as TIFF and did Shift+Command+4 to make a JPEG screen grab of it, which is what you are seeing! How low tech can you get!
