Location
This photo was taken at Lake Eufaula of South East Oklahoma. A large lake with over 700 shoreline miles. There are so many places around Lake Eufaula to capture and enjoy beautiful Sunsets.Time
Taken at dusk Sunset time of evening.Lighting
I am a beginner so not real sure what to say about lighting other than the lighting was pretty perfect in that moment I thought.Equipment
I used a Canon Powershot SX 400 IS Aperture f/5.6, ISO 100, Focal length 82194/1000 No flash or tripod.Inspiration
Sunsets are so beautiful that enjoying them in the moment is a pleasure but capturing them for viewing adds to the blessing!Editing
Honestly I cannot remember if I edited it or not. It really did not need it if any was very little. The colors were just so pretty. I love a natural looking sunset without adding a bunch of color...I think Sunsets are so pretty just like they are.In my camera bag
Canon powershot is the only camera I have right now, unless I want to do underwater shot I have an underwater camera, was hoping to do some traveling and when current crisis of pandemic improves hope to do just that! I just recently invested in Nikon D3100 DSLR my first 35mm so hoping to get some Milky Way shots in near future. Of course using a cellphone if I do not have my camera with me, helps me on the moment if I see something I really want to capture.Feedback
I just waited. ok and said a little prayer, as I wanted a picture with a bird in distance flying above the lake. Just waited and got the moment.
