Location
We had gone to look at a little church on the outskirts of Weston in a place called Uphill. We walked through a small wooded area and then across some fields, on crutches this is none to easy but I made itTime
We started walking late afternoon and as we broke through the wodded area we noticed the sun was going down, there were not plane lines in the are, it was still and we just walked ot the edge of the fields to watch the sun setting.Lighting
The lighting was increible due to the Icelandic volcanic eruptions. The oranges were just amazing and I just kept clicking awayEquipment
A Canon 20D, no tripod, Nothing elseInspiration
we had noticed that for a few days there had been no plane trails in the sky and I felt well enough for a walk to see if we could see a perfect sunset because of it as I rememer that a particular artist had mentioned that when Ktrakatoa erupted in 1883, he captured coliurs in the sky that he had never seen beforeEditing
None. I did not want to ruin the real coloursIn my camera bag
Nowadays I have a Canon 60d, 2 cheap video cameras and 2 cheap adventrue cameras and so many batteriesFeedback
