Hello friends in TL,

It is amazing how fast the sun disappeared along the horizon and how different tilt of the camera generates different colors of the sky.

The color of a sunset is determined by Rayleigh scattering and atmospheric conditions such as haze, dust particles, and clouds. When color blazes across the sky, clouds provide the canvas on which that color is painted. Middle- or high-level clouds are best. Cloudless skies can also produce interesting sunsets, but the color will likely be more muted and subtle. Sunsets with blazing colored clouds can stand alone photographically, but cloudless sky sunsets show off best with interesting subjects in the foreground.

I have enjoyed myself shooting this sunset and I hope you will like it too. Thanks for viewing!

Woow,
Hola Jusni,
precioso trabajo, cálidos colores y tonos...
exquisito pov y encuadre,
saludos

Beautiful colours and reflection. I think that from a personal point of view I would have gone down to the beach and made more use of the boat as a dominant foreground interest, maybe using a flash gun to light it and give some detail against the sunset colours.

Hi Jusni,
Fantastic sunset composition at the beach, amazing dusk colours. Calm, soft photo, makes me relax. Well captured scene, congratulations! TFS.
Best wishes,
Kristof

Absolutely awesome!

Hello Jusni! Amazing atmopshere. Wonderful seascape. Fantastic lightness. Good shot. Good luck!

This one is awesome Jusni, one of your best - if not THE best I've seen from you so far.

Beautiful light, perfectly metered and very well composed; a spectacular shot indeed.

Selamat Paki dear friend Jusni.
Besides this is a gorgeous sunset photograph, your description is very interesting aswell.
I think, most of the photographers AND their spectators, are big fan of sunsets / sunrising pitures.
The Sky is the Limit.!!!
Terima Kasih for showing here.
Have a lovely sunday, Jusni.
Greetings from Meri an Jan

hi Jusni

Superb glow of the sky and water in this capture of silhouette. It is my observation that due to the good mirror effect of wet sand, the reflection is more than on just normal water, and you have placed your space here in your composition.

This is familiar territory for me because it is something that is commonly found in Sibu and also Kuching after 6pm. But because Sarawak coastline is facing the west, so evening hours area always exciting time to witness changes in the sky.

A fine post of wet riverbank.

Hi Jusni...great shot...great colors and details...wonderful composition

Nicely done, good work managing the color and high intensity light against the darkness on the shore--just enough detail to keep it all interesting and anchor the shot.
TFS,
Wilt

What a magnificent sunset.
The colours are so vivid and compelling.
The FG really adds to the image.
The best, joni

Lovely ambiance here Jusni.
