Sunsets

Sunsets!! Along with sunrises it's what every photographer strives to put in their portfolio. A quick glance on Google Images brings up thousands upon thousands of sunset images. When I travel, I make it a point that I MUST capture at least a few good sunsets. 4:00AM wakeups ensure I also catch a couple great sunrises. Nothing beats the vivid colours and hues of the sky under a setting sun.

As you can see from the pictures in this post I also always (if possible) try to include some water in the shot. The colours of the sky being offset by the tranquil blue leads to some dramatic compositions (in my opinion).


The top image is that of Calgary, Alberta, the next two were taken on Oahu, Hawaii and the last one was taken in Sorrento, Italy.
