Location
I manage a 4 star resort in the north of Malta, the Ramla Bay Resort and we have an outlet called Mojitos Beach Terrace and has a private sandy beach which offers daily spectacular sunsets. Two couples were having fun sipping cocktails at the water's edge.Time
This photo was taken at around 8.00pm at my place of work (excuse the pun) :)Lighting
Nature rewards us with magnificent colours. Needless to say we have absolutely stunning sunsets every day as the sun sets just opposite in the horizon. Each day is a celebration of colours ending the day with a show of splendour. Waiting for the right moment just before losing the sun to the night god rewards us with beautiful lighting and colours ranging from reds, yellows, blues and purples.Equipment
This was shot with my Panasonic Lumix GX7Inspiration
Any person with a camera would definitely be inspired to take the shot. It is a daily show of the force of nature.Editing
I used a combination of Lightroom and Photoshop. In this instance I developed the image twice once for the sky and the other for the rest in order to bring out the beauty of the sky without giving excess colour to the rest.In my camera bag
As I am at my place of work I just carry my GX7. But normally I travel light as mostly I shoot street photography and street shots with an unconventional angle. I normally just carry an extra lens and spare batteries and cards.Feedback
Should you be travelling to Malta you have to visit the north of Malta where you can capture splendid sunsets over the Mediterranean and the island of Gozo. for colourful skies there is ample time however for a great sunset just wait until the last minute.
