Sunset photography

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Thanks for your kind comments about my pic. I think the interesting sunsets are partly to do with the time of year - not sure of the science tho, so that may be nonsense. No photshop on my pic. It just looked like that.

Great pics from Minnie and Louloubelle too, esp Loulou's apocalyptic Albert Square - Apocalypse Naaaah!

I think you're getting me mixed up with Editor. It's understandable. We look very similar

Ooops! Sorry Minnie and Editor, you do look the same in this light.

Here's my fave sunset shot. It's taken at Porlock in Somerset. I focused on the plant in the foreground and the sun in the background turned into this big orange mushroom cloud type thingy:

re the atmospheric conditions

...awesome site here

Cloud appreciation society is a great site.

Though I think you'll need to be a real connoisseur to appreciate what's about today

Here's my fave sunset pics from NY (and, yes, it really did look like this - and the camera's only captured half of the beauty!)

Wow, not sure which ones I like best. I quite like that pier one, and the beautiful dramatic sky on the last one but the top one's pretty as well.

Batman!

It really was an amazing sunset (the pics were taken from the Brooklyn Bridge).

Here's the Statue Of Liberty:

I must admit HDR is poo, you get a better result by using the exposures as layers.

Fantastic

That's the colour of the sky where I was. Didn't come out that colour though

Now you just need to stick Parliament on that photo and I'll be able to imagine what mine would have been like if I was any good at using a camera!

 

[psykoptic]

None of these have been photoshopped:

not quite a sunset but very odd, taken in spring at Eilean Donan Castle, there's details about it here:

More of the castle looking very weird here. It was a shame that it wasn't a clearer night, if the sun was out it would have been spectacular

another of Eilean Donan from a year or two ago

and one taken from Oban in summer:

I have shitloads more, but a lot of them are pre-digital. I keep meaning to get the negs scanned, or whatever I have to do to get them on CD

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

That's disgusting

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I know it's months later but I've finally got the pictures on to disc. So here it is. It's not great but you get an idea of what colour the sky was
