All taken on auto mode on a fujifilm finepix s1600 just using the zoom. We always get sunsets like this on sunny days, always look better with a little cloud though. Wish I had got Saturday nights as well actually, but happy with these for a £150 camera! Wish I could get the true colour of the sun though, it goes a really deep colour, but always glows in pictures!

If it's got the option on the camera then start messing around with the exposure levels, should look something like this >>> -2..-1..0..+1..+2

If it does have that on it then you could even look into doing some HDR stuff :cool:

Not my pictures, but it's an example of what you can do.

If you can set the white ballance on your camera, that can make a big difference to the colours that you see in the photo.

Daylight often gives you the closest to what your eye sees
Tungsten can make a scene much more blue-biased
Cloudy / florecent can boost the reds a little
