nice clouds in that one.

Trijicon · 07-27-2010, 10:31 AM

Here's another from our Australia trip. "Opera House Sunset"

Chewy734 · 07-27-2010, 10:34 AM

^ that photo is awesome, but I'm not so sure I see a true sunset...

Trijicon · 07-27-2010, 10:47 AM

^^ Ah okay, I'll post this instead.

"Harbour Bridge Sunset"

Chewy734 · 07-27-2010, 10:57 AM

^ nice!

Chewy734 · 07-28-2010, 02:20 PM

Let me tell you a little about the photo before I post it...

I captured this shot, handheld, atop the 10,000 foot Haleakala crater in Maui, where a photographer was giving lessons to his students on sunset photography. He was in a rush to get out of there after the class was over since it was only in the low 30s outside, in comparison to the high 80s along the shore.

Hurry up... it's cold up here!

UdubBadger · 07-28-2010, 02:27 PM

very nice.

See I don't mind them so much when its more than just the sun going down

BillLee · 07-28-2010, 03:51 PM

And thats where the creativity will be an advantage. I dont have any sunset shots of more than the sun going down. But I really like it when people try to be a bit more creative with their shots when shooting a sunset.

I think those people who try to do that "little bit more" will have the advantage in this one.

Chewy734 · 07-28-2010, 06:06 PM

Thanks guys... hopefully I'm in contention to win this time, as I have some ideas on a fun future contest.

I think you can say the people who try to do a little bit more in ANYTHING, photo contests or life in general, will have an advantage.

"Minute Men" I took this picture on the boarder in AZ. in 2005. I was part of the Minute Men and stood the first watches on the board during that month we stopped crossing in April of 2005.
