Whidbey Island Sunset #2

Posted by john4jack (Corvallis, Oregon, United States) on 23 August 2011 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

What is interesting about the sunset shots is that they were taken after driving almost 7 hours and being at a 5 p.m. opening session. There was no organized evening shoot. I didn't see hardly any of the workshop participants down at the water (but Tony was there). There was no other sunset nearly this good the entire rest of the workshop.

Nikon D700 1/250 second F/4.5 ISO 800 20 mm (35mm equiv.)

The marvelous red glow on the water is so attractive. The sunset proper and clouds complete this fine image. Excellent in every way.

That is a heart-throbbing sunset. Besides the incredibly brilliant color, my favorite aspect of this shot is the way the reflective red tips the tops of the ripples on the water !!
