Photographing the Sunset

Photo of the Day

When the light is right most everyone will make an image of a great sunset. I had made a few images of this beautiful sunset when I realized that the real image was right next to me. I kept exposing for the sunset knowing that the boys would become silhouettes. When photographing a sunset you always hear that you should look behind you. In this case the photo was not in front of me. I love when the unexpected becomes the photo.

Technical Data

For a sunset shot like this one not much is needed. I did increase the blacks and the vibrance. The highlights were increased just a bit as well. Other than that this is straight out of the camera. That makes for a boring section of this post.
