THE END OF THE LAST DAY MY SON WAS 22
ꒌ 💙RASTKO, SREĆAN ROĐENDAN!💝 🎉
► █░▓ THREE MINUTES OVER to the official sunset for the date and place (21:50 at 305º NW).
Just before the next sunrise my son will become 23 years of age.
Sun is slowly but resolutely "working" towards its northernmost sunset point on the horizon, which will happen in less than three weeks (summer solstice, 21 June at 22:02; in most locations north of the equator, this is the longest day of the year. However, the latest sunset is on 25 June, 22:03.). The point on this capture is already advanced enough - the sun has already reached Molenaarsgraaf en Vuilendam presumably, seen here just to the right of sun in the picture.
I was late, and the sun sets quickly so I had no time to set the curve in the camera to -3/+3 or -5/+5 as usually. So the capture had to be grossly underexposed to preserve any color of the sun itself. Aperture priority, set full open for the longest throw of the zoom lens. Handheld, supported by the window frame. Full frame equivalent of 800mm. Developed from raw and edited in Affinity Photo 1.10.5. Uncropped. Had to fiddle a lot with the curves to get the colors differentiate. The sooc jpeg of this shot is practically monochromatic.
~SHORTCUTS~ Press [F11] and [L] key to engage Full Screen (Light box) mode with black background - press the same key or [Esc] to return. Press [F] to "Like" (Fave), press [C] to comment.
