Requirement 5
This photo satisfies requirement 5- the golden hour. I took this at the Waterfront Park in Portland, which is one of the best spots to view sunset. I think I probably did not set the camera time properly when I took the picture, but I took it around 8pm at sunset. It was captured in manual mode and I used a small aperture of f/11 to keep everything in focus, but it was still very bright facing the sun so I had to use a fast shutter speed of 1/160s as well. The shadows happened to form diagonal lines across the picture, which helped with composition. For post processing, I increased the contrast and decreased the exposure in Lightroom so that the whole picture is more dramatic. I also tuned up the vibrancy to make the sunshine more golden.
