transitions [1 of 3]- 30min before sunset

Having been a sun owl for years, I already am attuned to the colors of the skies during sundown. A lot of people have asked me for phototips so here are some ideas so that you too can indulge in the color palettes that still amaze me up to now.

 

The sun was not raging yesterday as the day was generally overcast but the skies cleared just in time to sport gold tones 30 minutes before sunset. I wanted to play silhouettes so I underexposed the shot by 1 stop. Note that the closer the scenery, the darker the silhouettes.
