I cannot get a got photo of the sunset from where I usually watch for wildlife, but on the evening of the day after Christmas I manged to capture this sunset just a few moments before the color was gone from the sky. Taken with a Canon 40D and 70-200mm at 70mm, ISO 100 with 2 stops underexposture.
The colors here are wonderful. The play of the line of gray cloud above makes it that much more interesting.
ReplyDeleteOh... such a wonderful sky photo.
ReplyDeleteCheers,

A beautiful moment.

I think I'll change my old 300D for a 40D very soon. You have convinced me!
