Raked Sky
Raked Sky - Last night’s sunset was beautiful and reminded me of a raked Zen garden. I was on my way home and saw some clouds in the sky and decided to try for a sunset. I headed out to Willow Lake because it was close and I didn’t have much time to get somewhere. The sunset was started off ok with some nice pastels then faded away. I was packing up when the sky started to turn red so I quickly pulled out my gear again and snapped this one. The sky in this direction only glowed like this for about a minute before fading an other parts started glowing with deep red colors. Hope you enjoy the photo.
Technical Info: Shot on a Nikon D810 paired with a Tamron 15-30. One exposure/shot at ISO:64 f/18 2sec. and 17mm. Shot in RAW developed in Lightroom. Shot to be underexposed so the colors are richer then I increased the shadows, added a little contrast and sharpened and dropped the vibrancy a to a -4 and removed some saturation in the rocks. Then used Affinity to remove some dust spots that were on my lens/sensor.
