Pink Skies after Sundown, Lake Sam Rayburn TX
This is the view to the Southeast about 10 or 15 minutes after sundown. There was an abnormal amount of color going on in that direction and neither I nor Sarah (who was shooting with me) were set up to capture it. We were ready to leave, but the sky had other plans. I worked fast and got a few shots before the color faded. The composition turned out pretty horrible, but color like this is pretty forgiving.
This is a single six second exposure. I used a circular polarizer to create more contrast in the sky and enhance the reflection.
I’m happy to have received some constructive feedback yesterday on my portrait of Nini. Several people mentioned found the pole on the left side of the frame distracting, and nobody came out in favor of the pole. So I updated my post to balance out the conversation. Check it out
