You often get really strong sunset up north and I love the way it reflects of the sea. It creates such a strong silhouette against the deep orange sun.Equipment
Used my Nikon D3200 with the standard lense. Nothing elseInspiration
We had been wandering along the coast with the dogs and my friend climbed a rock and I noticed how powerful it looked against the sky. I took a few shots but this was my favourite.Editing
Not much. Made it a little clearer, increased contrast a little. It didn't need much editing.In my camera bag
Nikon D3200 and now my new tamron 16-300mm lense, it's a great allrounderFeedback
I guess it's just about being in the right place at the right time. Getting the composition right, I chose the rule of thirds. Making sure you have a quick shutter speed to get the silhouette.
