Getting the Most Out of Sunset

Edit Template

Lately, it’s been difficult to get out and get photos for the portfolio.  When the weather is good, I find I don’t have access to a car.  When the car is available, the weather sucks or makes the roads dangerous.  It’s a never-ending cycle of frustration and disappointment.  However, I got a small window where things worked out for a photo shoot.  When that happens, I must get the most out of the sunset in front of me.  Check out what I captured that day.

While working on a currently ongoing project, I squeezed in some time to get a couple of shots for myself during the trip.  It’s amazing sometimes what is right behind you when you turn around.  It’s a lesson I learned several years ago.

While pursuing the main shot I was there for, I turned around to see what the sunset behind me was doing.  That has been a rewarding effort in the past and it doesn’t cost me much at all to do.  The sunset was well worth checking out.

All I had to do was to find some kind of interesting foreground for the dramatic clouds which I saw and the light which was painting them.  Thanks to dead winter conditions, there wasn’t much to choose from.  Thankfully, there was a close by wheel line which I could incorporate as the foreground for my photo.  It added interest against an otherwise plain, dead, and brown field.

Thanks to taking a couple minutes away from my main subject, I was also able to capture this photo for my portfolio and for your enjoyment.
