Muelle Braun & Blanchard at sunset
The sun sank behind the mountains in the distance. I turned my camera to the left hoping to capture more colors in the water. But the fact that the clouds had turned grey fast didn’t promise me much.
But I also enjoy capturing moody, almost melancholic, twilight skies once the dusk settles in. Right before it gets real dark. And I thought that it was what I would be capturing.
There were at least three other photographers with a tripod, an ND filter and a remote trigger and one of them literally started breaking down one of his two cameras thinking that it was over.
Not so fast. Suddenly the color magenta started coming through the band of clouds hovering over the sea.
It was so unexpected, so unbelievable and so vivid. The color magenta was so vibrant that it didn’t even look real. And yet it was.
Baffled, the guy packing up his gear simply dropped everything, grabbed his remaining camera on the tripod and hastily lunged the piles of rocks where we had been standing down to the water. I could tell that he was quite frustrated by the fact that it was happening so fast.
Soon only the pale, grey clouds returned as if it never happened. And it was time to call it a day for real.
