Yep, it's unreal. That's where the photographer is a notch above a shutterbug. In the old days, my Cokin sunset filter worked wonders on a setting sun above the horizon ...or a rising one. Now we can do it all in the computer. I VERY much like the sun on or near one of the two vertical "thirds" of the Rule of Thirds. I know; it's just me (I hope not). A horizon above or below the center, a vertical subject not "cutting" an image down the middle, all that pertains to the Rule of Thirds makes for more powerful images, even though today's "pros" argue the point. For one thing, off center subjects help the viewer's eyes to wander the image more than a steady bead on a centered point of interest. The masters have known and practiced it for decades. Even most of Mr. No Rules, Ansel Adams' images are composed with this rule in his subconscience. That said, I think this image much stronger with the sun well off center. Congrats.
Same photographer See all
